We consider the problem of protein folding in the HP model on the 3D square lattice. This problem is combinatorially equivalent to folding a string of 0’s and 1’s so that the s...
In this paper, we show that any n point metric space can be embedded into a distribution over dominating tree metrics such that the expected stretch of any edge is O(log n). This ...
Database selection is an important step when searching over large numbers of distributed text databases. The database selection task relies on statistical summaries of the databas...
Given a graph (directed or undirected) with costs on the edges, and an integer k, we consider the problem of nding a k-node connected spanning subgraph of minimum cost. For the ge...
Abstract. This paper reports on the improved and multiple linear cryptanalysis of reduced round Serpent by mean of a branch-and-bound characteristic search within the algorithm. We...
