In this paper, we give a lower bound of (n(d-1)/2 ) on the quantum query complexity for finding a fixed point of a discrete Brouwer function over grid [1 : n]d . Our bound is near...
Energy consumption is a critical design issue in real-time systems, especially in battery- operated systems. Maintaining high performance, while extending the battery life between...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider two new online optimization problems (each with several variants), present similar online algorithms for both, and show that one reduces to the...
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a generic optimization problem defined by a network of local cost functions defined over discrete variables. It has applicatio...
