We present a near-optimal reduction from approximately counting the cardinality of a discrete set to approximately sampling elements of the set. An important application of our wo...
— We consider fair allocation of sessions at the outputs of optical cross-connects employing wavelength division multiplexing (WDM). Each session consists of traffic on one or m...
Well understood methods exist for developing programs from formal specifications. Not only do such methods offer a precise check that certain sorts of deviations from their specifi...
— Recently, research on disconnected networks has been fostered by several studies on delay-tolerant networks, which are designed in order to sustain disconnected operations. We ...
