Because it takes time and trust to establish agreement, traditional consensus-based architectural styles cannot safely accommodate resources that change faster than it takes to tr...
A unit disk graph is the intersection graph of unit disks in the euclidean plane. We present a polynomial-time approximation scheme for the maximum weight independent set problem i...
