We consider the problem of minimizing the number of ADMs in optical networks. All previous theoretical studies of this problem dealt with the off-line case, where all the lightpat...

Set agreement, where processors decisions constitute a set of outputs, is notoriously harder to analyze than consensus where the decisions are restricted to a single output. This ...
We extend the lower bound of Adler et. al [1] and Berenbrink [3] for parallel randomized load balancing algorithms. The setting in these asynchronous and distributed algorithms is...
We solve the problem of minimizing the number of critical points among all functions on a surface within a prescribed distance from a given input function. The result is achieved...
We consider the problem of traffic grooming in WDM path, star, and tree networks. Traffic grooming is a variant of the well-known logical topology design, and is concerned with the...
