The Network Interdiction Problem involves interrupting an adversary's ability to maximize flow through a capacitated network by destroying portions of the network. A budget c...
For many probability distributions of interest, it is quite difficult to obtain samples efficiently. Often, Markov chains are employed to obtain approximately random samples fro...
Selecting a random peer with uniform probability across a peer-to-peer (P2P) network is a fundamental function for unstructured search, data replication, and monitoring algorithms....
Parallel computers are now commonly used for computational science and engineering, and many applications in these areas use random number generators. For some applications, such ...
As the World Wide Web is growing rapidly, it is getting increasingly challenging to gather representative information about it. Instead of crawling the web exhaustively one has to...
