Mining Frequent Itemsets using Patricia Tries.

TL;DR: A depth-first algorithm that discovers all frequent itemsets in a dataset, for a given support threshold, is presented and several experimental results are reported, which assess the effectiveness of the implementation and show the better performance attained by PatriciaMine with respect to other prominent algorithms.

Space-round tradeoffs for MapReduce computations

TL;DR: A computational model for MapReduce is formally specified which captures the functional flavor of the paradigm by allowing for a flexible use of parallelism and diverges from a traditional processor-centric view by featuring parameters which embody only global and local memory constraints.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

BSP vs LogP

TL;DR: Within the limits of the analysis that is mainly of asymptotic nature, BSP and LogP can be viewed as closely related variants within the bandwidth-latency framework for modeling parallel computation.

Tight bounds on information dissemination in sparse mobile networks

TL;DR: Quite surprisingly, it is shown that for a system below the percolation point, the broadcast time does not depend on the transmission radius, and this result complements a recent result of Peres et al. (SODA 2011) who showed that above the perColation point the broadcastTime is polylogarithmic in k.
