Abstract. We formulate a robust optimal control problem for a general nonlinear system with finitely many admissible control settings and with costs assigned to switching of contro...
With the rapid performance improvements in low-cost PCs, it becomes increasingly practical and cost-effective to implement large-scale video-on-demand (VoD) systems around parallel...
Many applications depend on efficient management of large sets of distinct strings in memory. For example, during index construction for text databases a record is held for each d...
The problem of disjoint sets, also known as union-find, consists in maintaining a partition of a finite set within a data structure. This structure provides two operations: a fu...
Multidimensional hourglass filter banks decompose the frequency spectrum of input signals into hourglass-shaped directional subbands, each aligned with one of the frequency axes. T...
