This paper initiates research on the foundations of ranking systems, a fundamental ingredient of basic e-commerce and Internet Technologies. In order to understand the essence and...
We introduce a new graph-theoretic approach to image segmentation based on minimizing a novel class of `mean cut' cost functions. Minimizing these cost functions corresponds ...
Virtual private network design in the hose model deals with the reservation of capacities in a weighted graph such that the terminals in this network can communicate with one anoth...
Analysis of massive graphs has emerged as an important area for massively parallel computation. In this paper, it is shown how the Fresh Breeze trees-of-chunks memory model may be...
This paper examines the dynamics of a networked multi-agent system operating with a consensus-type coordination algorithm that can be influenced by external agents. We refer to thi...
