In this note we consider a simple reformulation of the traditional power iteration algorithm for computing the stationary distribution of a Markov chain. Rather than communicate t...
In recent years there has been considerable interest in analyzing random graph models for the Web. We consider two such models - the Random Surfer model, introduced by Blum et al....
Web masters usually place certain web pages such as home pages and index pages in front of others. Under such a design, it is necessary to go through some pages to reach the desti...
