Abstract--This letter considers the average complexity of maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding of convolutional codes. ML decoding can be modeled as finding the most probable path take...
New architectures have recently been proposed and deployed to support end-to-end advance reservation of network resources. These architectures rely on the use a centralized schedul...
Estimating distances in the Internet has been studied in the recent years due to its ability to improve the performance of many applications, e.g., in the peer-topeer realm. One sc...
Abstract. We give a (ln n + 1)-approximation for the decision tree (DT) problem. An instance of DT is a set of m binary tests T = (T1, . . . , Tm) and a set of n items X = (X1, . ....
First Come First Served (FCFS) is a policy that is accepted for implementing fairness in a number of application domains such as scheduling in Operating Systems, scheduling web req...
