When the problem calls for a minimal traversal of a digraph (or multidigraph) it is known as the "New York Street Sweeper problem." [13] The k-Chinese postman problem: find k cycles all starting at a designated location such that each edge is traversed by at least one cycle. The goal is to minimize the cost of the most expensive cycle.

He defines a technopoly as a society in which technology is deified, meaning “the culture seeks its authorisation in technology, finds its satisfactions in technology, and takes its orders from technology”.
The mixed Chinese postman problem (MCPP or MCP) is the search for the shortest traversal of a graph with a set of vertices V, a set of undirected edges E with positive rational weights, and a set of directed arcs A with positive rational weights that covers each edge or arc at least once at minimal cost.

It raises specific issues of intellectual property, contract law, criminal law and fundamental rights like privacy, the right to self-determination and freedom of expression. Information technology law has also been heavily invested of late in issues such as obviating risks of data breaches and artificial intelligence.
In software engineering, the laws of software evolution refer to a series of laws that Lehman and Belady formulated starting in 1974 with respect to software evolution. [1] [2] The laws describe a balance between forces driving new developments on one hand, and forces that slow down progress on the other hand. Over the past decades the laws ...
