Hadwiger's Conjecture On Circular Arc Graphs
(2009-04-30)Conjectured in 1943, Hadwiger’s conjecture is one of the most challenging open problems in graph theory. Hadwiger’s conjecture states that if the chromatic number of a graph G is k, then G has a clique minor of size at ... -
Computer Assisted Evaluation Of Student Performance In An Engineering Course
(2009-04-29)Increasing enrollment of students and declining availability of qualified and experienced faculty are leading to increased assessment loads of the existing faculty. Moreover, the assessment techniques are changing drastically ... -
Procurement Network Formation : A Cooperative Game Theoretic Approach
(2009-04-16)Complex economic activity often involves inter-relationships at several levels of production, often referred to as supply chains or procurement networks. In this thesis we address the problem of forming procurement networks ... -
System Dynamics Modeling Of Stylized Features Of Stock Markets
(2009-04-16)The common theme throughout the thesis is to explore the possibility of using a single framework, namely the systems theory framework, in modeling a few stylized features of a financial market. A systems theoretic model ... -
Discovering Roles In The Evolution Of Collaboration Networks
(2009-04-02)Searching the Web involves more than sifting through a huge graph of pages and hyperlinks. Specific collaboration networks have emerged that serve domain-specific queries better by exploiting the principles and patterns ... -
Large Data Clustering And Classification Schemes For Data Mining
(2009-03-20)Data Mining deals with extracting valid, novel, easily understood by humans, potentially useful and general abstractions from large data. A data is large when number of patterns, number of features per pattern or both are ... -
Caching Techniques For Dynamic Web Servers
(2009-03-20)Websites are shifting from static model to dynamic model, in order to deliver their users with dynamic, interactive, and personalized experiences. However, dynamic content generation comes at a cost – each request ... -
