In this paper, we study the vaccination of graphs against the outbreak of infectious diseases, in the following natural model generalizing a model by Aspnes et al.: An infectious ...
Abstract. We calculate call and burst blocking probabilities (CBP and BBP respectively) in a single link loss system accommodating service-classes of ONOFF traffic calls, either of...
In this paper we discuss a new type of query in Spatial Databases, called the Trip Planning Query (TPQ). Given a set of points of interest P in space, where each point belongs to ...
Round-based games are an instance of discrete planning problems. Some of the best contemporary game tree search algorithms use random roll-outs as data. Relying on a good policy, ...
We compare two algorithms for sorting out-of-core data on a distributed-memory cluster. One algorithm, Csort, is a 3-pass oblivious algorithm. The other, Dsort, makes three passes...
