On the Computation of An

SIAM Review, 1998
Alternative methods are introduced to compute \(A^n\) for nonsingular matrices \(A\). The methods are based on the Cayley-Hamilton theorem and are pedagogically simpler than the well-known transformation method.

Computability in distributed computing

ACM SIGACT News, 2012
What can and cannot be computed in a distributed system is a complex function of the system's communication model, timing model, and failure model. This tutorial surveys some important results about computability in the canonical distributed system model, where processes execute asynchronously, they communicate by reading and writing shared memory, and

Computation and Computational Thinking

The Computer Journal, 2012
We recommend using the term Computation in conjunction with a well-defined model of computation whose semantics is clear and which matches the problem being investigated. Computer science already has a number of useful clearly defined models of computation whose behaviors and capabilities are well understood.

On the Computational Complexity of Conservative Computing

2003
In a seminal paper published in 1982, Fredkin and Toffoli have introduced conservative logic, a mathematical model that allows one to describe computations which reflect some properties of microdynamical laws of Physics, such as reversibility and conservation of the internal energy of the physical system used to perform the computations. In particular,
