Abstract. This paper introduces a new method for safety analysis called HiPHOPS (Hierarchically Performed Hazard Origin and Propagation Studies). HiP-HOPS originates from a number ...
As the platform for wide-area distributed applications, the middleware architecture should support adaptability, scalability, mobility, reliability and security. However, current ...
In [8], the authors formulate new coset bounds for algebraic geometric codes. The bounds give improved lower bounds for the minumum distance of algebraic geometric codes as well a...
In comparative genomics, one wishes to deduce the evolutionary distance between dierent species by studying their genomes. Using gene order information, we seek the number of time...
Let G be a simple connected graph with n vertices and n edges which we call an unicyclic graph. In this paper, we first investigate the least eigenvalue n(G), then we present two ...
