Abstract. Social networks are navigable small worlds, in which two arbitrary people are likely connected by a short path of intermediate friends that can be found by a "decent...
Abstract. We present a first constant performance guarantee for preemptive stochastic scheduling to minimize the sum of weighted completion times. For scheduling jobs with release ...
Evolutionary algorithms based on "tags" can be adapted to induce cooperation in selfish environments such as peer-to-peer systems. In this approach, nodes periodically co...
Abstract. Energy and delay are critical issues for wireless sensor networks since most sensors are equipped with non-rechargeable batteries that have limited lifetime. Due to the u...
