Ramsey numbers for tournaments
Authors: Yannis Manoussakis, Zsolt Tuza
Venue: Theoretical Computer Science (2001)

The Ramsey number r(D1,...,Dk) of acyclic directed graphs D1,...,Dk is defined as the largest integer r for which there exists a tournament T = (V, A) on r vertices with a k-coloring &fgr; : A &rarr; {1,...,k} of the are set A such that no Dt occurs in color i for any i &egr; {1,...,k} . We discuss recursive techniques to compute r(D1,...,Dk) in the case where there are paths and/or stars among the Dr In particular, solving a problem of Bialostocki and Dierker [Congr. Numer. 47 (1985) 119-123], we prove that r(D1D2)= r(D1)&bull;r(D2)holds if Dt is transistive and D2 = Sn is an out-going star on n vertices. Our main result is an asymptotic formula for r(D1,...,D1, Sn) where the digraphs D1,..., Dk are fixed arbitrarily and n&rarr;(infinity sign).

Local Area Network Performance: Issues and Answers - Book - Disk
Authors: Gil Held
Venue:  (1994)

:The number of Local Area Networks (LANs) is increasing rapidly and is expected to double over the next few years. From both an economic and operational perspective, the performance of an organization's LANs is critical. However, if a network is congested, performance is degraded and user productivity suffers. In this book and its accompanying disk, Gilbert Held provides a unique guide to the hardware and software tools with which to determine LAN performance. By following his advice, readers will be able to configure new LANs and modify existing networks to satisfy current and anticipated user requirements. Features include detailed instructions on how to estimate network and internet traffic prior to installing a network; guidance on how to select and design equipment for reliability and optimum performance; advice on how to estimate and analyse bridge and router delays; and coverage of how changes in the configuration of a network can affect the performance of Ethernet and Token-Ring networks. A 3 1/2" IBM PC compatible disk accompanies this book. This convenience disk contains all the programs listed in the text and will be of immediate practical use to all readers who have access to a PC. An increasing amount of software for LAN management and testing is now becoming available. This book and disk package provides independent advice to enable network managers, designers and analysts to adjust their LANs for improved performance. It is also essential reading for all advanced students in electrical, electronic and communications engineering and computer science.

Symbol Recognition by Error-Tolerant Subgraph Matching between Region Adjacency Graphs
Authors: Josep Lladoós, Enric Martí, Juan Josée Villanueva
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (2001)

We propose an error-tolerant subgraph isomorphism algorithm formulated in terms of region adjacency graphs (RAG). A set of edit operations to transform one RAG into another one are defined as regions are represented by polylines and string matching techniques are used to measure their similarity. The algorithm follows a branch and bound approach driven by the RAG edit operations. This formulation allows matching computing under distorted inputs and also reaching a solution in a near polynomial time. The algorithm has been used for recognizing symbols in hand drawn diagrams

Slide Edge Algorithm
Authors: Duy Huynh
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing (2002)

The Traveling Salesman Problem is one of the most well known problems in the class of optimization problems and is still a challenge for many computer scientists today. One approach used to attack this problem is the use of Neighborhood Search Techniques (or Improvement Algorithms) that improve a solution by making a move to a neighbor if it is a better solution. Neighborhood Search Techniques are used either independently itself or plugged in other algorithms such as Iterated Algorithm, Local Search, or Evolutionary Algorithm. At the same time, the running time gets slower quickly as the size of neighborhood grows exponentially. In this paper, we introduce the Slide Edge Algorithm (SEA), which is supposed not to find a move as Neighborhood Search Techniques do but to improve the quality of a move that a Neighborhood Search Technique finds out. While the time to find a move is exponential, the time of SEA is approximately to linear. In experiment results, with the support of SEA in improving a have-just-found move, Neighborhood Search Techniques achieve a better quality of the tour in a reasonable amount of time.

Women take a wider view
Authors: Mary Czerwinski, Desney S. Tan, George G. Robertson
Venue: Proceedings of the SIGCHI conference on Human factors in computing systems: Changing our world, changing ourselves (2002)

Published reports suggest that males significantly outperform females in navigating virtual environments. A novel navigation technique reported in CHI 2001, when combined with a large display and wide field of view, appeared to reduce that gender bias. That work has been extended with two navigation studies in order to understand the finding under carefully controlled conditions. The first study replicated the finding that a wide field of view coupled with a large display benefits both male and female users and reduces gender bias. The second study suggested that wide fields of view on a large display were useful to females despite a more densely populated virtual world. Implications for design of virtual worlds and large displays are discussed. Specifically, women take a wider field of view to achieve similar virtual environment navigation performance to men

A picture says more than a thousand words: photographs as trust builders in e-commerce websites
Authors: Ulrike Steinbrück, Heike Schaumburg, Sabrina Duda, Thomas Krüger
Venue: CHI '02 extended abstracts on Human factors in computing systems (2002)

Virtual re-embedding, i.e., adding social cues to a website, has been suggested as a possible strategy to increase consumer trust in online-vendors. Numerous online retailers meanwhile incorporate this strategy, for example by adding photographs and names of customer service agents or by creating chat and callback opportunities. Yet, little is is known about the effectiveness of virtual re-embedding. The present study examined the effectiveness of a comparably simple strategy, the inclusion of photograph in an e-bank's website and found a significant positive effect on perceived trustworthiness of the examined website. It is suggested that virtual re-embedding is an effective way to increase customer trust and that it does not even have to be costly to implement.
