For a connected graph G, let L(G) denote the maximum number of leaves in a spanning tree in G. The problem of computing L(G) is known to be NP-hard even for cubic graphs. We improv...
We study the average number of delays suffered by packets routed using greedy (work conserving) scheduling policies. We obtain tight bounds on the worst-case average number of del...
We study the complexity of expressing the greatest common divisor of n positive numbers as a linear combination of the numbers. We prove the NP-completeness of finding an optimal s...
Abstract--We develop a new metric for quantifying end-toend throughput in multihop wireless networks, which we term random access transport capacity, since the interference model p...

In preemptive real-time systems, scheduling analyses need—in addition to the worst-case execution time—the context-switch cost. In case of preemption, the preempted and the pr...
