Abstract. Aggregation is an important building block of modern distributed applications, allowing the determination of meaningful properties (e.g. network size, total storage capac...
We study a class of overrelaxed bound optimization algorithms, and their relationship to standard bound optimizers, such as ExpectationMaximization, Iterative Scaling, CCCP and No...
PageRank (PR) is one of the most popular ways to rank web pages. However, as the Web continues to grow in volume, it is becoming more and more difficult to crawl all the available...
In this paper we present a new fanout optimization algorithm which is particularly suitable for digital circuits designed with submicron CMOS technologies. Restricting the class o...
A new model of nonuniform traffic is introduced for a single-hop packet-switching system. This traffic model allows arbitrary traffic streams subject only to a constraint on the nu...
