In this paper, we study a maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) approach to preference aggregation and voting when the set of alternatives has a multi-issue structure, and the voter...
Background: Motif patterns of maximal saturation emerged originally in contexts of pattern discovery in biomolecular sequences and have recently proven a valuable notion also in t...
A computer package is being developed at Bayreuth for the generation and investigation of discrete structures. The package is a C and C++ class library of powerful algorithms endow...
Tweakable enciphering schemes are length preserving block cipher modes of operation that provide a strong pseudo-random permutation. It has been suggested that these schemes can b...
Existing slotted channel access schemes in wireless networks assume that slot boundaries at all nodes are synchronized. In practice, relative clock drifts among nodes cause slot mi...
