In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
Suppose that D is an acyclic orientation of the graph G. An arc of D is dependent if its reversal creates a directed cycle. Let d(D) denote the number of dependent arcs in D. Defi...
Let G = (V, E) be any d-regular graph with girth g on n vertices, for d ≥ 3. This note shows that G has a maximum matching which includes all but an exponentially small fraction...
Motivated by a problem on message routing in communication networks, Graham and Pollak proposed a scheme for addressing the vertices of a graph G by N-tuples of three symbols in s...

The number of processors embedded in high performance computing platforms is growing daily to solve larger and more complex problems. However, as the number of components increases...
