We present jump consistent hash, a fast, minimal memory, consistent hash algorithm that can be expressed in about 5 lines of code. In comparison to the algorithm of Karger et al., jump consistent hash requires no storage, is faster, and does a better job of evenly dividing the key space among the buckets and of evenly dividing the workload when the number of buckets changes. Its main limitation...

A proof of a Nash-Moser type inverse function theorem is given under substantially weaker hypothesis than previously known. Our method is associated with continuous Newton’s method rather than the more conventional Newton’s method.

We describe exbar, a powerful new algorithm for the exact inference of minimal deterministic automata from given training data. This algorithm achieves the highest performance ever on a set of graded benchmark problems that has been posted by Arlindo Oliveira. In addition, we note that the inexact program ed-beam, which resulted from the Abbadingo DFA learning competition, also does well on thi...

Industrialization and increasing demand for the consumption of fossil fuels cause that energy becomes a strategic factor. Energy crisis and the emergence of modern architecture led designers to pay more attention to the important task of building's envelope. Building skins play an important role in building thermal behavior and reduce energy consumption. If Double Skin Facades properly designed...

in this note, by considering the notions of the intuitionistic general l-fuzzy automaton and $(alpha, beta)$-language, we show that for any $(alpha, beta)$-language $mathcal{l}$, there exists a minimal intuitionistic general l-fuzzy automaton recognizing $mathcal{l}$.we prove that the minimal intuitionistic general l-fuzzy automaton is isomorphic with threshold $(alpha,beta)$ to any $(alpha, be...
