Abstract. In this paper we extend one of the main tools used in veri cation of discrete systems, namely Binary Decision Diagrams (BDD), to treat probabilistic transition systems. W...
We combine the principles of the Floyd-Warshall-Kleene algorithm, enriched categories, and Birkhoff arithmetic, to yield a useful class of algebras of transitive vertex-labeled s...
We describe a simple random-sampling based procedure for producing sparse matrix approximations. Our procedure and analysis are extremely simple: the analysis uses nothing more th...
Abstract. We show that all algebraic-geometric codes possess a succinct representation that allows for the list decoding algorithms of [15, 7] to run in polynomial time. We do this...
We present a polynomial-time algorithm which at the extra cost of a factor O(k) (k the number of variables) generalizes inter-procedural copy constant propagation. Our algorithm in...
