To function in mobile computing environments, distributed file systems must cope with networks that are slow, intermittent, or both. Intermittence vitiates the effectiveness of ca...
― This paper describes a new docking system called Compliant-And-Self-Tightening (CAST) developed as an effective and efficient connector for joining and releasing modules of sel...
Dynamic graph connectivity algorithms have been studied for many years, but typically in the most general possible setting, where the graph can evolve in completely arbitrary ways...
