The newly emerging field of Network Science deals with the tasks of modelling, comparing and summarizing large data sets that describe complex interactions. Because pairwise affin...
This paper connects two fundamental ideas from theoretical computer science: hard-core set construction, a type of hardness amplification from computational complexity, and boosti...
Probabilistic I/O automata (PIOA) constitute a model for distributed or concurrent systems that incorporates a notion of probabilistic choice. The PIOA model provides a notion of ...
We investigate the runtime of the Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm introduced by Kennedy and Eberhart (1997). The Binary PSO maintains a global best solution and...
The World Summit on Sustainable Development (Johannesburg, 2002) encouraged the application of the ecosystem approach by 2010. However, at the same Summit, the signatory States un...
