The quantum query complexity of searching for local optima has been a subject of much interest in the recent literature. For the d-dimensional grid graphs, the complexity has been...
Flooding and random walk (RW) are the two typical search algorithms in unstructured peer-to-peer networks. The flooding algorithm searches the network aggressively. It covers the m...
— File distribution via network coding has received a lot of attention lately. However, direct application of network coding may have security problems. In particular, attackers ...
