A Kahn process network (KPN, or process network) is a distributed model of computation in which a group of deterministic sequential processes communicate through unbounded first in, first out channels. The model requires that reading from a channel is blocking while writing is non-blocking.
It is required to perform all tasks by assigning exactly one agent to each task in such a way that the maximum cost among the individual assignments is minimized. The term " bottleneck " is explained by a common type of application of the problem, where the cost is the duration of the task performed by an agent.
An alternative algorithm for topological sorting is based on depth-first search.The algorithm loops through each node of the graph, in an arbitrary order, initiating a depth-first search that terminates when it hits any node that has already been visited since the beginning of the topological sort or the node has no outgoing edges (i.e., a leaf node):
Focuses on Kahn's role in the development of computer networking from 1967 through the early 1980s. Beginning with his work at Bolt Beranek and Newman (BBN), Kahn discusses his involvement as the ARPANET proposal was being written, his decision to become active in its implementation, and his role in the public demonstration of the ARPANET. The ...
This algorithm can also be rewritten to use the Fast2Sum algorithm: [7] function KahanSum2(input) // Prepare the accumulator. var sum = 0.0 // A running compensation for lost low-order bits. var c = 0.0 // The array input has elements indexed for i = 1 to input.length do // c is zero the first time around.
In mathematical optimization, the Karush–Kuhn–Tucker (KKT) conditions, also known as the Kuhn–Tucker conditions, are first derivative tests (sometimes called first-order necessary conditions) for a solution in nonlinear programming to be optimal, provided that some regularity conditions are satisfied.
The Kahn–Kalai conjecture, also known as the expectation threshold conjecture or more recently the Park-Pham Theorem, was a conjecture in the field of graph theory and statistical mechanics, proposed by Jeff Kahn and Gil Kalai in 2006. [1] [2] It was proven in a paper published in 2024. [3]
Leonard R. Kahn (June 16, 1926 – June 3, 2012) was an electrical engineer, who invented technology for AM broadcasting. He held over 100 patents. He was primarily known for advocating several technologies designed to improve the sound quality of AM radio. His Kahn-Hazeltine system was the chief competitor to Motorola's C-Quam AM Stereo system ...
