Users of digital libraries usually want to know the exact author or authors of an article. But different authors may share the same names, either as full names or as initials and...
In this paper, we present a general data clustering algorithm which is based on the asymmetric pairwise measure of Markov random walk hitting time on directed graphs. Unlike tradi...
Broadcasting algorithms are important building blocks of distributed systems. In this work we investigate the typical performance of the classical and well-studied push model. Assu...
We are given a collection of m random subsequences (traces) of a string t of length n where each trace is obtained by deleting each bit in the string with probability q. Our goal ...
We consider the problem of Scheduling n Independent Jobs on m Unrelated Parallel Machines, when the number of machines m is xed. We address the standard problem of minimizing the ...
