In an online convex optimization problem a decision-maker makes a sequence of decisions, i.e., chooses a sequence of points in Euclidean space, from a fixed feasible set. After ea...
A search algorithm based on non-binary forward checking (nFC) is used to solve the car-sequencing problem. The choice of value ordering heuristics having a dramatic effect on solu...
Astatistical theory of local alignmentalgorithms with gaps is presented. Both the linear and logarithmic phases, as well as the phase transition separating the two phases, are des...
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate a large proportion of mammalian genes by hybridizing to targeted messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and down-regulating their translation into protein. Although mu...
Parallel disks provide a cost effective way of speeding up I/Os in applications that work with large amounts of data. The main challenge is to achieve as much parallelism as poss...
