Abstract. Neglecting traceability—i.e., the ability to describe and follow the life of a requirement—is known to entail misunderstanding and miscommunication, leading to the en...
We propose and study a new information transmission problem motivated by today’s internet. A real number, perhaps representing control information in a network, is encoded using...
— This paper unifies two independently developed formalisms for path-vector routing protocols such as the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), the standard inter-domain routing protoc...
In this paper, fundamental conditions which bound the network processing unit (NPU) worst-case performance are established. In particular, these conditions formalize and integrate...
The investigation of evolutionary algorithms as adaptation schemes has a long history starting with Holland (1975). The Ising model from physics leads to a variety of different pr...
