Bulk Synchronous Parallel Algorithms for the External Memory Model
Abstract. Blockwise access to data is a central theme in the design of efficient external memory (EM) algorithms. A second important issue, when more than one disk is present, is f...

Laplacian spectral bounds for clique and independence numbers of graphs
Let G be a simple graph with n vertices and m edges. Let ω(G) and α(G) be the numbers of vertices of the largest clique and the largest independent set in G, respectively. In th...

Interval-Set Algebra for Qualitative Knowledge Representation
The notion of interval sets is introduced as a new kind of sets, represented by a pair of sets, namely, the lower and upper bounds. The interval-set algebra may be regarded as a c...
