Randomized Sets and Multisets
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sets and multisets are fundamental data structures which are used in numerous distributed algorithms. We investigate randomized versions of sets and multisets and show that our probabilistic approach can improve the performance of systems using our distributed shared data structures. We give algorithms for basic set and multiset operations and prove a number of fundamental properties. We illustrate the use of randomized multisets in a location tracking application of mobile ad hoc networks.

General definitions for the union and intersection of ordered fuzzy multisets
Since its original formulation, the theory of fuzzy sets has spawned a number of extensions where the role of membership values in the real unit interval $[0, 1]$ is handed over to more complex mathematical entities. Amongst the many existing extensions, two similar ones, the fuzzy multisets and the hesitant fuzzy sets, rely on collections of several distinct values to represent fuzzy membershi...
متن کاملAn Approach to Location Tracking of Mobile Sensors based on Distributed Randomized Multisets
The tracking of location information in mobile ad hoc sensor networks is a well-studied problem for which many solutions have been proposed. The approach discussed in this paper is based on the systematic use of a distributed shared data structure. Specifically, randomized versions of replicated sets and multisets are introduced. It is shown that this probabilistic approach can improve the perf...
متن کاملON GENERALIZED FUZZY MULTISETS AND THEIR USE IN COMPUTATION
An orthogonal approach to the fuzzification of both multisets and hybridsets is presented. In particular, we introduce $L$-multi-fuzzy and$L$-fuzzy hybrid sets, which are general enough and in spirit with thebasic concepts of fuzzy set theory. In addition, we study the properties ofthese structures. Also, the usefulness of these structures is examined inthe framework of mechanical multiset proc...
متن کاملFuzzy Sets, Multisets, and Rough Approximations
Multisets alias bags are similar to fuzzy sets but essentially different in basic concepts and operations. We overview multisets together with basics of fuzzy sets in order to observe differences between the two. We then introduce fuzzy multisets and the combination of the both concepts. There is another concept of real-valued multisets as a generalization of multisets. Rough approximations of ...
متن کاملFunctional Dependencies with Counting on Trees
The paper presents an axiomatisation for functional dependencies on trees that are defined using constructors for records, lists, sets and multisets. A simple form of restructuring permitting lists to be mapped onto multisets and multisets onto sets is added to the theory. Furthermore, the theory handles dependencies on sets treated as multisets. This adds the possibility to use the count of el...
