Minimizing Flow Time in the Wireless Gathering Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We address the problem of efficient data gathering in a wireless network through multi-hop communication. We focus on the objective of minimizing the maximum flow time of a data packet. We prove that no polynomial time algorithm for this problem can have

Online Correlation Clustering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study the online clustering problem where data items arrive in an online fashion. The algorithm maintains a clustering of data items into similarity classes.

Local Approximation Schemes for Ad Hoc and Sensor Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We present two local approaches that yield polynomial-time approximation schemes (PTAS) for the Maximum Independent Set and Minimum Dominating Set problem in unit disk graphs.

Dominance Product and High-Dimensional Closest Pair under $L_\infty$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$, the Closest Pair problem is to find a pair of distinct points in $S$ at minimum distance. When $d$ is constant, there are efficient algorithms that solve this problem, and fast approximate solutions for ...

Dynamic sharing of a multiple access channel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In this paper we consider the mutual exclusion problem on a multiple access channel. Mutual exclusion is one of the fundamental problems in distributed computing.

Mental calculation : its place in the development of numeracy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The current concerns about the standards of numeracy in primary schools, as these are manifest in different official reports (HMI, 1997; DfEE, 1998), have given a revised emphasis to mental calculation.

An Edge-Based Framework for Enumerating 3-Manifold Triangulations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A typical census of 3-manifolds contains all manifolds (under various constraints) that can be triangulated with at most n tetrahedra. Although censuses are useful resources for mathematicians, constructing them is difficult: the best algorithms to date ...

Faster Algorithms for the Maximum Common Subtree Isomorphism Problem [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The maximum common subtree isomorphism problem asks for the largest possible isomorphism between subtrees of two given input trees. This problem is a natural restriction of the maximum common subgraph problem, which is ${\sf NP}$-hard in general graphs ...

Solving a "Hard" Problem to Approximate an "Easy" One: Heuristics for Maximum Matchings and Maximum Traveling Salesman Problems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
We consider geometric instances of the Maximum Weighted Matching Problem (MWMP) and the Maximum Traveling Salesman Problem (MTSP) with up to 3,000,000 vertices.
