We study the problem of navigating through a database of similar objects using comparisons. This problem is known to be strongly related to the small-world network design problem....
The problem of verifying a Minimum Spanning Tree (MST) was introduced by Tarjan in a sequential setting. Given a graph and a tree that spans it, the algorithm is required to check...
Scatter search is an evolutionary method that has been successfully applied to hard optimization problems. The fundamental concepts and principles of the method were first propose...
We design a randomized polynomial time algorithm which, given a 3-tensor of real numbers A = {aijk}n i,j,k=1 such that for all i, j, k ∈ {1, . . . , n} we have ai jk = aik j = a...
Abstract— Motivated by the widespread proliferation of wireless networks employing directional antennas, we study the problem of provisioning bandwidth in such networks. Given a ...
