We study the communication complexity of rumor spreading in the random phone-call model. Suppose n players communicate in parallel rounds, where in each round every player calls a...
This paper presents MAUI, a system that enables fine-grained energy-aware offload of mobile code to the infrastructure. Previous approaches to these problems either relied heavily...
Stability is one of the most important subjects in control systems. As for the stability of nonlinear dynamical systems, Lyapunov’s direct method and linearized stability analys...
Background: Sequence alignments form part of many investigations in molecular biology, including the determination of phylogenetic relationships, the prediction of protein structu...
