Mathematical principles for scientific computing and visualization Farin G., Hansford D., AK Peters Ltd, Wellesley, MA, 2008. 275 pp. Type: Book (9781568813219)
Every so often, you find a book you are just itching to use to teach a course. This slim volume by Farin and Hansford is one of them. It presents just the right set of topics for students coming from the physical and natural sciences, ...

Conjoinability in pregroups Kiślak-Malinowska A. Fundamenta Informaticae 61(1): 29-36, 2004. Type: Article
Pregroups are novel algebraic structures introduced by Lambek for the study of sentence structure. A pregroup is a partially ordered monoid together with unary right adjoint and left adjoint operators. This new algebra enables the soph...

Root comparison techniques applied to computing the additively weighted Voronoi diagram Karavelas M., Emiris I. Discrete algorithms (Proceedings of the fourteenth annual ACM-SIAM symposium, Baltimore, Maryland, Jan 12-14, 2003) 320-329, 2003. Type: Proceedings
Karavelas and Emiris consider additively weighted Voronoi diagrams (Voronoi diagrams in which the sites carry weights), and the distance of a point from a site is the Euclidean distance minus the weight of the site. Geometrically, this...

On the subgroup generated by a small doubling binary set Hennecart F., Plagne A. European Journal of Combinatorics 24(1): 5-14, 2003. Type: Article
Let A be a subset of an n dimensional vector space over the field with two elements, and define A as the set of sums of two elements of A. Naively, the more in...

Exponential bounds with applications to call admission Liu Z., Nain P., Towsley D. Journal of the ACM 44(3): 366-394, 1997. Type: Article
Motivated by the need to characterize response time or backlog distributions for the design and analysis of multimedia systems, the authors model one component of such systems as a single-server queue driven by a demand process whose a...

Foundations of queueing theory Prabhu N., Kluwer Academic Publishers, Norwell, MA, 1997. Type: Book (9780792399629)
Prabhu is an eminent author and researcher, and founding editor of the influential journal Queueing Systems. The content, objectives, target audience, and prerequisites for this book are best described by quoting from the prefac...

A comparative study of parallel and sequential priority queue algorithms Rönngren R., Ayani R. ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation 7(2): 157-209, 1997. Type: Article
The priority queue is an important data structure that is essential to the design of many system programs, such as operating systems, as well as to the design of many applications, such as simulations. In fact, priority queues must be ...

On the convergence of traffic measurement and queueing analysis: a statistical-matching and queueing (SMAQ) tool Li S., Hwang C. IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking 5(1): 95-110, 1997. Type: Article
The authors observe that teletraffic analysis can be viewed as a two-step process: describe (measure) the input traffic, and construct a model that predicts the performance of the system when its input traffic has the characteristics o...

Modeling of optimal load balancing strategy using queueing theory Spies F. Microprocessing and Microprogramming 41(8-9): 555-570, 1996. Type: Article
Though the writing in this paper is hard to understand--almost incomprehensible--my best guess is that the model the author uses to represent an “optimal load balancing strategy using queueing theoryR...

Calculating normalization constants of closed queueing networks by numerically inverting their generating functions Choudhury G., Leung K., Whitt W. Journal of the ACM 42(5): 935-970, 1995. Type: Article
The authors provide an algorithm for calculating normalization constants and moments of product-form steady-state distributions of closed queueing networks. The main concept in this paper is the numerical inversion of the generating fu...
