This document reviews the existing mechanisms for site renumbering for both IPv4 and IPv6, and it identifies operational issues with those mechanisms. It also summarises current technical proposals for additional mechanisms. Finally, there is a gap analysis identifying possible areas for future work.

A statistical procedure has been tried as a method of investigating the structure of language with the aid of data processing machines. The frequency of gaps of various lengths between occurrences of two specified words is counted. The results are compared with what would be expected if the occurrences of the two words were statistically independent. Deviations from the expected number give clu...

In this paper we reconsider the connectedness effect discussed by Kayne (1983), and illustrated in the examples (1)-(3). Kayne observed that in VO languages, left branch constituents are strong islands for extraction; however, an illegitimate gap inside a left branch island can be rescued by another gap embedded in a lower right branch constituent. The examples in (1)-(2) illustrate preverbal s...

Course construction using reusable learning objects is becoming ever more popular due to its’ efficiency. The course creator who uses this methodology may face problems due to the fact that he or she is not as intimately involved in the creation of every element of the course. In this paper we discuss one such problem faced by course creator known as “the competency gap”. Here, we define the co...

In this work, we achieve gap amplification for the Small-Set Expansion problem. Specifically, we show that an instance of the Small-Set Expansion Problem with completeness ε and soundness 12 is at least as difficult as Small-Set Expansion with completeness ε and soundness f (ε), for any function f (ε) which grows faster than √ ε. We achieve this amplification via random walks – the output graph...
