Distributed hash table (DHT) networks based on consistent hashing functions have an inherent load balancing problem. The problem becomes more severe due to the heterogeneity of ne...
— Ethernet over SONET (EoS) is a popular approach for interconnecting geographically distant Ethernet segments using a SONET transport infrastructure. It typically uses virtual c...
Fixed-angle polygonal chains in 3D serve as an interesting model of protein backbones. Here we consider such chains produced inside a “machine” modeled crudely as a cone, and e...

We present a simple randomized algorithm which solves linear programs with n constraints and d variables in expected minfO(d 22dn); e 2 pdln(n= p d)+O( p d+lnn)g time in the unit ...
A pseudo-Boolean function is a real-valued function defined on {0, 1}n . A k-bounded function is a pseudo-Boolean function that can be expressed as a sum of subfunctions each of w...
