Failure location in transparent optical networks is difficult because of the large amount of alarms that a failure can trigger and because of corrupted alarms. One problem that network operators often face is how to set the thresholds in monitoring devices ...
The generalized hypertree width GHW(H) of a hypergraph H is a measure of its cyclicity. Classes of conjunctive queries or constraint satisfaction problems whose associated hypergraphs have bounded GHW are known to be solvable in polynomial time. However, i ...
The graph coloring problem is one of the most famous problems in graph theory and has a large range of applications. It consists in coloring the vertices of an undirected graph with a given number of colors such that two adjacent vertices get different col ...
We introduce the scale axis transform, a new skeletal shape representation for bounded open sets O ⊂ &Rdbl;d. The scale axis transform induces a family of skeletons that captures the important features of a shape in a scale-adaptive way and ...
Games on graphs with omega-regular objectives provide a model for the control and synthesis of reactive systems. Every omega-regular objective can be decomposed into a safety part and a liveness part. The liveness part ensures that something good happens " ...
We prove that for any 1-reduced simplicial set X, Adams' cobar construction, on the normalised chain complex of X is naturally a strong deformation retract of the normalised chains CGX on the Kan loop group GX, opening up the possibility of applying the to ...
The goal of this work is to study Alexander-Whitney coalgebras (first defined in [HPST06]) from a topological point of view. An Alexander-Whitney coalgebra is a coassociative chain coalgebra over Z with an extra algebraic structure : the comultiplication m ...
Aggregate scheduling is one of the most promising solutions to the issue of scalability in networks, like DiffServ networks and high speed switches, where hard QoS guarantees are required. For networks of FIFO aggregate schedulers, the main existing suffic ...

We outline a procedure for using pseudorandom generators to construct binary codes with good properties, assuming the existence of sufficiently hard functions. Specifically, we give a polynomial time algorithm, which for every integers n and k, constru ...
