Contraction Blockers for Graphs with Forbidden Induced Paths
(Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2015)
We consider the following problem: can a certain graph parameter of some given graph be reduced by at least d for some integer d via at most k edge contractions for some given integer k? We examine three graph parameters: ...
Dynamic Multi Threshold Priority Packet Scheduling Algorithms
(EDP Sciences, 2015)
Packet scheduling algorithms are developed in order to use shared transmission resources efficiently. Various application packets such as real and non-real time packets might have different QoS requirements and traditional ...
How an Inhibitor Bound to Subunit Interface Alters Triosephosphate Isomerase Dynamics
(Cell Press, 2015)
The tunnel region at triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)'s dimer interface distant from its catalytic site is a target site for certain benzothiazole derivatives that inhibit TIM's catalytic activity in Trypanosoma cruzi the ...
Gender and the Wage Gap in Turkish Academia
