Classes of graphs with bounded expansion have been introduced in [15], [12]. They generalize both proper minor closed classes and classes with bounded degree. For any class with b...
Local Search problem, which finds a local minimum of a black-box function on a given graph, is of both practical and theoretical importance to combinatorial optimization, complexi...
This paper presents three policies for effectively utilizing TCP offload network interfaces that support connection handoff. These policies allow connection handoff to reduce the ...
