We show a general reduction that derives lower bounds on degrees of polynomial calculus proofs of tautologies over any field of characteristic other than 2 from lower bounds for r...
This paper introduces an efficient and accurate interconnect simulation technique. A new formulation for typical VLSI interconnect structures is proposed which, in addition to pr...
Abstract. We propose a new definition for abstract syntax (with binding constructions), and, accordingly, for initial semantics and algebraicity. Our definition is based on the n...
This paper describes an integrated location-distribution model for coordinating logistics support and evacuation operations in disaster response activities. Logistics planning in ...
Let (L, ∗) be a semilattice, and let c : L → [0, ∞) be monotone and increasing on L. We state the Minimum Join problem as: given size n sub-collection X of L and integer k w...
