Suppose you want to evaluate a graph parameter on a graph G. There is a cut of size k in a graph, and while you know everything about one side of the cut, you have to pay for information about the other side. How much information do you need about the other side? To avoid the trivial solution “just tell me the value of the parameter, if my side looks like this”, let us assume that the informati...

To date, various connection rerouting methods for connection-oriented mobile networks have been proposed. The previous methods, however, are limited to specific topologies or environments. In this paper, we propose the connection-information-based rerouting widely applicable to various connection-oriented mobile networks. This method requires neither a specific topology nor a complex connection...

Today connections are playing an important role in the steel frames subjected to lateral seismic loading. The steel extended end-plate moment connection can play an important role in the steel frame when subjected to seismic loadings. In the past, this type of connection has been under investigation mainly when it was subjected to monotonic loading. After major recent earthquakes and failure of...

This paper evaluates the effect of slot existence with limited length between flanges and web junction of I-shaped beams at the region of moment connections on vertical force and shear stress distribution in beam flanges and web at connection section in comparison with classical theory of stress distribution. The main purpose of this research is to evaluate the efficiency of the slot in connect...
