We present an O(p*n) algorithm for the problem of finding disjoint simple paths of minimum total length between p given pairs of terminals on oriented partial 2-trees with n nodes and positive or negative arc lengths. The algorithm is in O(n) if all termin ...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) comprise a fast-developing research area with a vast spectrum of applications. A WSN design is influenced by many factors such as transmission errors, network topology and power consumption. Consequently, developing a WSN app ...
This paper proposes deterministic algorithms for decentralized network coding. Decentralized coding allows to locally specify the coding operations at network nodes without knowledge of the overall network topology, and to accommodate future changes in the ...
Phylogenetic networks model the evolutionary history of sets of organisms when events such as hybrid speciation and horizontal gene transfer occur. In spite of their widely acknowledged importance in evolutionary biology, phylogenetic networks have so far ...
We calculate the average throughput benefit that network coding can offer as compared to routing for different classes of multicast configurations over directed graphs. The averaging is over the throughput each individual receiver experiences. For the case ...
The famous min-cut, max-flow theorem states that a source node can send a commodity through a network to a sink node at the rate determined by the flow of the min-cut separating the source and the sink. Recently it has been shown that by linear re-encoding ...
The pioneering paper by H. Schichl and A. Neumaier has founded the fundamentals of interval analysis on DAGs for global optimization, including a fundamental of constraint propagation. In this paper, we extend the constraint propagation technique for solvi ...
We consider the problem of finding an optimal family of nested rooted subtrees of a tree. We give a linear algorithm for the associated 1.p. for this problem. A generalization of this problem is that of finding an optimal "lower closed set" of nodes in an ...
