The end-to-end assignment of bandwidth to node-pairs (demands) in a communication network can be considered fair if it is distributed according to the max-min fair (MMF) principle. This paper investigates the problem of obtaining an MMF allocation if each demand is required to use exactly one path (i.e., to use unsplittable flows). First it is shown that the problem is NP-hard, both if each demand

Scalable and reliable distributed object-oriented computing (DOC) middleware systems is an important technology in, for example, telecommunications service logic and distributed web servers. The Common Object Request Broker Architecture (CORBA), developed by the Object Management Group (OMG) is a speci cation of a common platform for DOC systems. CORBA acts as middleware, by inserting itself betwe
Previous studies have shown that the predominant proteins secreted by the seminal vesicles are transglutaminase substrates which have undergone major structural alterations during evolution. In man, they are known as semenogelin I and II; recently it was shown that, similar to man, several new world and old world monkeys carry two semenogelin genes as well, the exception being the cotton-top tamar
