Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: A binary Byzantine agreement algorithms can be extended to produce a multivalued Byzantine agreement algorithm that is cheaper than previously published algorithms when the cost of transmitting values from the multivaluing domain is significant.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: An O(n) algorithm is presented for the Linear Multiple Choice Knapsack Problem and its d-dimensional generalization which is based on Megiddo's (1982) algorithm for linear programming and a certain type of convex programming problems which are common in geometric location models.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The usual backtrack algorithm for the decision problem of K-colorability of a graph G is considered, and it is shown that the algorithm operates in average time that is O(1), as the number of vertices of G approaches infinity.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Un algorithme d'Huffman permet de generer des codes a redondance minimum pour un ensemble fini de message a frequences de transmissions connues, mais le systeme binaire reste certainement le mieux adapte aux applications informatiques.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is shown that for Petri nets in general, ∞- fairness equals k-fairness for all k, and that for a large subclass of nets, (k+1)-fairness equals (k- Fairness) for allk.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: En considerant le temps d'execution et the facilite de codage, on recommande la structure de donnees complete, si l'espace le permet, plutot que the structure compacte.


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The algorithm is developed by first finding an intuitively clear divide-and-conquer algorithm with sublinear workspace, and then removing the workspace.

Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A parallel algorithm is presented for selecting the kth smallest element of a totally ordered (but not sorted) set of n elements, 1⩽k ⩽n, for an optimal total cost of O(n).

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: If the endpoints of these n arcs are given, it is shown that O(n log n) is both sufficient and necessary for solving the minimum cover problem.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: This time-and space-optimal algorithm to compute the edges of the disjoint polygons, that is, the contour, uses the scan-line paradigm as in two previous approaches to this problem for rectangles, but requires a simpler data structure.
