We present in this article a new approximation algorithm for scheduling a set of n independent rigid (meaning requiring a fixed number of processors) jobs on hierarchical parallel ...
Some systems interact with their environment at physically distributed interfaces, called ports, and in testing such a system it is normal to place a tester at each port. Each test...
Abstract. Machine learning can be utilized to build models that predict the runtime of search algorithms for hard combinatorial problems. Such empirical hardness models have previo...
