Distributed Virtual Environment (DVE) systems have been designed last years as a set of distributed servers. These systems allow a large number of remote users to share a single 3...
We analyze various stochastic processes for generating permutations almost uniformly at random in distributed and parallel systems. All our protocols are simple, elegant and are b...
We revisit the problem of computing shortest obstacle-avoiding paths among obstacles in three dimensions. We prove new hardness results, showing, e.g., that computing Euclidean sh...
Abstract--In communication networks, multiple disjoint communication paths are desirable for many applications. Such paths, however, may not exist in a network. In such a situation...
— This paper describes a novel, ultra-fast heuristic algorithm to address an NP-hard optimization problem. One of its significances is that, for the first time, the paper shows...
