With the increasing network densification, it has become exceedingly difficult to provide traditional fiber backhaul access to each cell site, which is especially true for small cell base stations (SBSs). The increasing maturity of millimeter wave (mmWave) communication has opened up the possibility of providing high-speed wireless backhaul to such cell sites. Since mmWave is also suitable for ...

Did European regions industrialize first because their institutions fostered urbanization? We argue that culture, precisely an agricultural inheritance tradition would immobilize the rural population, was no obstacle to economic growth (as commonly thought). Instead, equal partition tied excess labor land and establishment of a low-wage low-skill industry there. Using data for German state Bade...

We show that with high probability the random graph G n , 1 / 2 $$ {G}_{n,1/2} has an induced subgraph of linear size, all whose degrees are congruent to r ( mod q ) r\kern0.3em \left(\operatorname{mod}\kern0.3em q\right) for any fixed and ≥ q\ge . More generally, same is true distribution modulo Finally, we can partition vertices into + q+1 parts nearly equal each which induces a Our results r...

Many computing problems benefit from dynamic partition of data into smaller chunks with better parallelism and locality. Previous partition methods either have high overhead or only apply to uniformly distributed data. This paper presents a new partition method in sorting scenario based on probability distribution, an idea first studied by Janus and Lamagna in early 1980’s on a mainframe comput...

We consider the problem of maximizing the probability of hitting a strategically chosen hidden virtual network by placing a wiretap on a single link of a communication network. This can be seen as a twoplayer win-lose (zero-sum) game that we call the wiretap game. The value of this game is the greatest probability that the wiretapper can secure for hitting the virtual network. The value is show...
