Traditional automata accept or reject their input, and are therefore Boolean. In contrast, weighted automata map each word to a value from a semiring over a large domain. The speci...
In this paper a polynomial algorithm for the prime factorization of finite, connected nonbipartite graphs with respect to the cardinal product is presented. This algorithm also d...
We present a deterministic strongly polynomial algorithm that computes the permanent of a nonnegative n × n matrix to within a multiplicative factor of en. To this end we develop...
The problem of finding k minimum energy, edge-disjoint paths in wireless networks (MEEP) arises in the context of routing and belongs to the class of range assignment problems. A ...
