The abstraction inherent in most specifications and the need to specify nondeterministic programs are two well-known sources of nondeterminism in formal specifications. In this pap...
Abstract. Infinite time register machines (ITRMs) are register machines which act on natural numbers and which are allowed to run for arbitrarily many ordinal steps. Successor step...
- Clustering of data is an important data mining application. One of the problems with traditional partitioning clustering methods is that they partition the data into hard bound n...
We investigate a new property of computing systems called weak stabilization. Although this property is strictly weaker than the well-known property of stabilization, weak stabiliz...
Consider the edge-connectivity survivable network design problem: given a graph G = (V, E) with edge-costs, and edgeconnectivity requirements rij Z0 for every pair of vertices i,...
