The maximization of a positive (semi)definite complex quadratic form over a finite alphabet is NP-hard and achieved through exhaustive search when the form has full rank. Howeve...
We address a longstanding open problem of [11, 10], and present a general transformation that transforms any pointer based data structure to be confluently persistent. Such transf...
Under the hypothesis that NP has positive p-dimension, we prove that any approximation algorithm A for MAX3SAT must satisfy at least one of the following:
This paper is concerned with workload minimization in re-entrant lines with exponential service times and preemptive control policies. Using a numerical algorithm called the power...
In the bus network problem, the goal is to generate a plan for getting from point X to point Y within a city using buses in the smallest expected time. Because bus arrival times a...
