The increasing popularity of all-optical networks has led to extensive research on the routing and wavelength assignment problem, also termed as the Routing and Path Coloring probl...
: A fundamental problem in communication networks is wavelength assignment (WA): given a set of routing paths on a network, assign a wavelength to each path such that the paths wit...
—Symmetry breaking is a fundamental operation in distributed computing. It has applications to important problems such as graph vertex and edge coloring, maximal independent sets...
Let S be a set of n points in IRd and let t > 1 be a real number. A t-spanner for S is a graph having the points of S as its vertices such that for any pair p, q of points ther...
