—This paper aims at answering the questions of how to enable cooperative communications in random access networks. And, since cooperation introduces extra transmissions in the ch...
To classify a large number of unlabeled examples we combine a limited number of labeled examples with a Markov random walk representation over the unlabeled examples. The random w...
: We initiate the study of a new measure of approximation. This measure compares the performance of an approximation algorithm to the random assignment algorithm. This is a useful ...
Permutations of vertices can represent constrained spanning trees for evolutionary search via a decoder based on Prim’s algorithm, and random keys can represent permutations. Tho...
: We consider the routing and the wavelength assignment (RWA) of scheduled and random lightpath demands in a wavelength switching mesh network without wavelength conversion functio...
