3G Cellular networks typically consist of a group of NodeBs connected to a Radio Network Controller (RNC), and a group of RNCs to a Serving GPRS Support Node (SGSNs) as well as to a Mobile Switching Centre (MSCs). Post deployment planning of such network is to re-plan the connectivity among the above mentioned network elements with an objective to minimize the cost of operation of the network. ...

The paper describes the project held within Russian National Corpus (http://www.ruscorpora.ru). Beside such obligatory constituents of a linguistic corpus as POS (parts of speech) and morphological tagging RNC contains semantic annotation. Six classifications are involved in the tagging: category, taxonomy, mereology, topology, evaluation and derivational classes. The operating of the context s...

In this lecture we present a randomized parallel algorithm for generating a maximal independent set. We then show how to derandomize the algorithm using pairwise independence. For an input graph with n vertices, our goal is to devise an algorithm that works in time polynomial in log n and using polynomial in n processors. See Chapter 12.1 of Motwani and Raghavan [5] for background on parallel m...

We show how to extend the RNC-algorithm for maximal match-ings due to Israeli-Itai (presented in 5]) to compute maximal (with respect to set of edges inclusion) f-matchings. Our algorithm works in O(log 2 n) time on an arbitrary Crcw Pram with a linear number of processors. Also we slightly improve a constant coeecient in the analysis of the Israeli-Itai algorithm. Finally we present more eecie...

We have calculated the topological charge of U(N) instantons on non-degenerate noncommutative space time to be exactly the instanton number k in a previous paper [1]. This paper, which deals with the degenerate R NC ×R2 case, is the continuation of [1]. We find that the same conclusion holds in this case, thus complete the answer to the problem of topological charge of noncommutative U(N) insta...

Maternal depression (MD) is a condition that has wide-ranging effects on the woman, her family, and the broader global society. It is generally agreed that MD is associated with untoward effects on the developmental trajectory of offspring. The aim of this article is to review the historical and theoretical underpinnings informing current thought linking MD with infant development, and to highl...
