Unbounded speed variability in distributed communication systems
- In Conference Record of 9th ACM Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages
"... allocation algorithms and real time implementation of message passing in CSP. This paper concerns the fundamental problem of synchronizing communication between distributed processes whose speeds (steps per real time unit) vary dynamically. Communication must be established in matching pairs, which ..."

Two Decentralized Algorithms for Strong Interaction Fairness for Systems with Unbounded Speed Variability
- Theretical Computer Science
, 2000
"... We present two randomized algorithms, one for message passing and the other for shared memory, that, with probability 1, schedule multiparty interactions in a strongly fair manner. Both algorithms improve upon a previous result by Joung and Smolka (proposed in a shared-memory model, along with a str ..."

straightforward conversion to the message-passing paradigm) in the following aspects: First, processes' speeds as well as communication delays need not be bounded by any predetermined constant. Secondly, our algorithms are completely decentralized, and the sharedmemory solution makes use of only single
Unbounded proof-length speed-up in deduction modulo
- CSL 2007, VOLUME 4646 OF LNCS
, 2007
"... In 1973, Parikh proved a speed-up theorem conjectured by Gödel 37 years before: there exist arithmetical formulæ that are provable in first order arithmetic, but whose shorter proof in second order arithmetic is arbitrarily smaller than any proof in first order. On the other hand, resolution for h ..."

Visibility-Based Pursuit-Evasion with Bounded Speed
"... This paper presents an algorithm for a visibility-based pursuit-evasion problem in which bounds on the speeds of the pursuer and evader are given. The pursuer tries to find the evader inside of a simply-connected polygonal environment, and the evader in turn tries actively to avoid detection. The ..."

. The algorithm is at least as powerful as the complete algorithm for the unbounded speed case, and with the knowledge of speed bounds, generates solutions for environments that were previously unsolvable. Furthermore, the paper develops a characterization of the set of possible evader positions as a function
Searching for Mobile Intruders in a Polygonal Region by a Group of Mobile Searchers
- SIAM JOURNAL ON COMPUTING
"... The problem of searching for mobile intruders in a polygonal region by mobile searchers is considered. A searcher can move continuously inside a polygon holding a flashlight that emits a single ray of light whose direction can be changed continuously. The visibility of a searcher at any time instant ..."

CAPTURE PURSUIT GAMES ON UNBOUNDED DOMAINS
"... ABSTRACT. We introduce simple tools from geometric convexity to analyze capturetype (or “Lion and Man”) pursuit problems in unbounded domains. The main result is a necessary and sufficient condition for eventual capture in equal-speed discrete-time multi-pursuer capture games on convex Euclidean dom ..."

On the role of entanglement in quantum computational speed-up
"... For any quantum algorithm operating on pure states we prove that the presence of multi-partite entanglement, with a number of parties that increases unboundedly with input size, is necessary if the quantum algorithm is to offer an exponential speed-up over classical computation. Furthermore we prove ..."

ON THE SPEED OF SPREAD FOR FRACTIONAL REACTION-DIFFUSION EQUATIONS
, 908
"... Abstract. The fractional reaction diffusion equation ∂tu + Au = g(u) is discussed, where A is a fractional differential operator on R of order α ∈ (0,2), the C 1 function g vanishes at ζ = 0 and ζ = 1 and either g ≥ 0 on (0,1) or g < 0 near ζ = 0. In the case of non-negative g, it is shown that s ..."

that solutions with initial support on the positive half axis spread into the left half axis with unbounded speed if g(ζ) satisfies some weak growth condition near ζ = 0 in the case α> 1, or if g is merely positive on a sufficiently large interval near ζ = 1 in the case α < 1. On the other hand, it shown
Fractional semi-linear parabolic equations with unbounded data
- Trans. of the AMS
"... Abstract. This paper is devoted to the study of semi-linear parabolic equations whose principal term is fractional, i.e. is integral and eventually singular. A typical example is the fractional Laplace operator. This work sheds light on the fact that, if the initial datum is not bounded, assumptions ..."

, assumptions on the non-linearity are closely related to its behaviour at infinity. The sublinear and superlinear cases are first treated by classical techniques. We next present a third original case: if the associated first order Hamilton-Jacobi equation is such that perturbations propagate at finite speed
Scheduling for speed bounded processors

, 2008
"... Abstract. We consider online scheduling algorithms in the dynamic speed scaling model, where a processor can scale its speed between 0 and some maximum speed T. The processor uses energy at rate s α when run at speed s, where α> 1 is a constant. Most modern processors use dynamic speed scaling to ..."
