In this paper a two-level hierarchical model for the location of concentrators and routers in computers networks is presented. Given a set of candidate locations and the capacitie...
We propose a special computational device which uses light rays for solving the subset-sum problem. The device has a graph-like representation and the light is traversing it by fol...
