Abstract
A general framework is developed for removing randomness from randomized NC algorithms whose analysis uses only polylogarithmic independence. Previously, no techniques were known to determinize those RNC algorithms depending on more than constant independence. One application of the techniques is an NC algorithm for the set discrepancy problem, which can be used to obtain many other NC algorithms, including a better NC edge-coloring algorithm. As another application an NC algorithm for the hypergraph coloring problem is provided
