Abstract. We consider a generalization of the set cover problem, in which elements are covered by pairs of objects, and we are required to find a minimum cost subset of objects th...
We consider an optical routing problem. SONET add-drop multiplexers (ADMs) are the dominant cost factor in SONET /WDM rings. The number of SONET ADMs required by a set of traffic...
Requirements prioritization plays a key role in the requirements engineering process, in particular with respect to critical tasks such as requirements negotiation and software re...

Accurate estimation of signal delay is critical to the design and verification of VLSI circuits. At very high frequencies, signal delay in circuits with small feature sizes is do...
We present a novel algorithm that assigns codes to instructions during instruction code compression in order to minimize bus-related bit-toggling and thus reducing power consumpti...
