The double interdiction problem on trees (DIT) for the sum of root-leaf distances (SRD) has significant implications in diverse areas such as transportation networks, military strategies, and counter-terrorism efforts. It aims to maximize…
We study a vehicle-based hub network design problem (HNDPv) with the main applications in freight distribution and parcel delivery systems, where the economies of scale stem from the effective utilization of vehicles that move consolidated…
The aim of this work is to change the routing strategy of AODV protocol (Ad hoc On Demand Vector) in order to improve the energy consumption in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET). The purpose is to minimize the regular period of HELLO messages…
A cut tree (or Gomory-Hu tree) of an undirected weighted graph G=(V,E) encodes a minimum s-t-cut for each vertex pair {s,t} \subseteq V and can be iteratively constructed by n-1 maximum flow computations. They solve the multiterminal…
The register function (or Horton-Strahler number) of a binary tree is a well-known combinatorial parameter. We study a reduction procedure for binary trees which offers a new interpretation for the register function as the maximal number of…
Approximate nearest neighbor (ANN) search is a fundamental problem in many areas of data mining, machine learning and computer vision. The performance of traditional hierarchical structure (tree) based methods decreases as the…
The retrieval problem is the problem of associating data with keys in a set. Formally, the data structure must store a function f: U ->{0,1}^r that has specified values on the elements of a given set S, a subset of U, |S|=n, but may have…
This work proposes \textsc{H-Td}, a practical linear-time algorithm for computing an optimal-width tree decomposition of Halin graphs. Unlike state-of-the-art methods based on reduction rules or separators, \textsc{H-Td} exploits the…
We introduce a new variant of the $k$-deck problem, which in its traditional formulation asks for determining the smallest $k$ that allows one to reconstruct any binary sequence of length $n$ from the multiset of its $k$-length…
We present a linearizable, non-blocking $k$-ary search tree ($k$-ST) that supports fast searches and range queries. Our algorithm uses single-word compare-and-swap (CAS) operations, and tolerates any number of crash failures. Performance…
Given a digraph $D=(V,A)$ and a positive integer $k$, a subset $B\subseteq A$ is called a \textbf{$k$-union-arborescence}, if it is the disjoint union of $k$ spanning arborescences. When also arc-costs $c:A\to \mathbb{R}$ are given,…
We study the hop-constrained s-t path enumeration (HcPE) problem, which takes a graph $G$, two distinct vertices $s,t$ and a hop constraint $k$ as input, and outputs all paths from $s$ to $t$ whose length is at most $k$. The…
Today's communication networks have stringent availability requirements and hence need to rapidly restore connectivity after failures. Modern networks thus implement various forms of fast reroute mechanisms in the data plane, to bridge the…
In this study, we attempt to add to the literature of Connected and Automated Vehicle (CAV) security by incorporating the security vulnerabilities and countermeasures of the Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) and their access technologies.…
Given a rooted tree and a ranking of its leaves, what is the minimum number of inversions of the leaves that can be attained by ordering the tree? This variation of the problem of counting inversions in arrays originated in mathematical…
Nodes in route-restricted overlays have an immutable set of neighbors, explicitly specified by their users. Popular examples include payment networks such as the Lightning network as well as social overlays such as the Dark Freenet. Routing…
Like any digital certificate, Verifiable Credentials (VCs) require a way to revoke them in case of an error or key compromise. Existing solutions for VC revocation, most prominently Bitstring Status List, are not viable for many use cases…
The structure of many real-world optimization problems includes minimization of a nonlinear (or quadratic) functional subject to bound and singly linear constraints (in the form of either equality or bilateral inequality) which are commonly…
In recent years, dynamically growing data and incrementally growing number of classes pose new challenges to large-scale data classification research. Most traditional methods struggle to balance the precision and computational burden when…
The automaton constrained tree knapsack problem is a variant of the knapsack problem in which the items are associated with the vertices of the tree, and we can select a subset of items that is accepted by a top-down tree automaton. If the…
