Architectures for optical processors designed to solve bounded instances of NP-Complete problems are suggested. One approach mimics the traveling salesman by traveling beams that ...
A spoonerism is a sentence in some natural language where the swapping of two letters results in a new sentence with a different meaning. In this paper, we give some efficient algo...
In this paper, we consider the question: what is the worst possible page-replacement strategy? Our goal is to devise an online strategy that has the highest possible fraction of mi...

We establish the existence of free energy limits for several sparse random hypergraph models corresponding to certain combinatorial models on Erd¨os-R´enyi graph G(N, c/N) and r...
We discuss an unusual reflexive construction in which the Chinese reflexive ziji appears twice, once before the verb and once after. We demonstrate that this is a distinct construc...
This paper deals with pipelined queries over services. The execution plan of such queries defines an order in which the services are called. We present the theoretical underpinni...
We introduce Multi-Trials, a new technique for symmetry breaking for distributed algorithms and apply it to various problems in general graphs. For instance, we present three rand...
In the NP-hard Cluster Editing problem, we have as input an undirected graph G and an integer k 0. The question is whether we can transform G, by inserting and deleting at most k ...
We present a complete, exact and efficient implementation to compute the adjacency graph of an arrangement of quadrics, i.e. surfaces of algebraic degree 2. This is a major step t...

Abstract. In the present work, we are interested in the practical behavior of a new fptas to solve the approximation version of the 0-1 multiobjective knapsack problem. Nevertheles...
