The Computational Complexity of One-Dimensional Sandpiles
Abstract. We prove that the one-dimensional sandpile prediction problem is in AC1 . The previously best known upper bound on the ACi -scale was AC2 . We also prove that it is not i...

Emergent Syntax: The Unremitting Value of Computational Modeling for Understanding the Origins of Complex Language
Abstract. In this paper we explore the similarities between a mathematical model of language evolution and several A-life simulations. We argue that the mathematical model makes so...

Globally Optimal Uneven Erasure-Protected Multi-Group Packetization of Scalable Codes
We study the problem of rate-distortion optimal packetization with uneven erasure protection (UEP) of scalable source sequence, into multiple groups of packets. The grouping of pa...

The Complexity of Computing Minimal Unidirectional Covering Sets
Abstract. Given a binary dominance relation on a set of alternatives, a common thread in the social sciences is to identify subsets of alternatives that satisfy certain notions of ...
