Let G = (V; E; w) be an undirected graph with nonnegative edge length function w and nonnegative vertex weight function r. The optimal product-requirement communication spanning t...
—Aspnes et al [2] introduced an innovative game for modeling the containment of the spread of viruses and worms (security breaches) in a network. In this model, nodes choose to i...

Abstract. Stochastic optimization is a leading approach to model optimization problems in which there is uncertainty in the input data, whether from measurement noise or an inabili...
We show how to nd a minimum weight loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability. Finding such a loop cutset is the rst step in the method of conditioning for inference....
Fischer proposes in [4] a sequential algorithm to compute a minimum weight spanning tree of maximum degree at most b + logb n in time O n4+1/ln b for any constant b > 1, where ...
