We consider a system of linear constraints over any finite Abelian group G of the following form: i(x1, . . . , xn) ≡ i,1x1 + · · · + i,nxn ∈ Ai for i = 1, . . . , t and e...
For a prime p and a vector ¯α = (α1, . . . , αk) ∈ Zk p let f (¯α, p) be the largest n such that in each set A ⊆ Zp of n elements one can find x which has a unique repr...
We consider the question: What is the maximum flow achievable in a network if the flow must be decomposable into a collection of edgedisjoint paths? Equivalently, we wish to find a...
The language compression problem asks for succinct descriptions of the strings in a language A such that the strings can be efficiently recovered from their description when given...
We consider packet scheduling in a network providing differentiated services, where each packet is assigned a value. We study various queueing models for supporting QoS (Quality ...
