• #### Fashioning A Discourse Of Elegance And Politics: The Historical Roots Of The Sapeur Movement, 1884-1980 ﻿

(2010-08-05)
This thesis focuses on the history of the movement in CongoBrazzaville and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It seeks to bridge the gaps between the social, cultural, and political histories of these two countries with ...
• #### FAST (Faceted Application of Subject Terminology) overview ﻿

(2013-10-08)
An overview of OCLC's FAST (Faceted Application of Subject Terminology), its characteristics and potential uses.
• #### Fast Algorithms for $N$-body Simulation ﻿

(Cornell University, 1993-08)
Many physical models require the simulation of a large number ($N$) of particles interacting through pair-wise inverse square law forces. $N$-body simulations are employed in fluid-dynamics, biochemistry, astrophysics, ...

• #### Fast Compiled Logic Simulation Using Linear BDDs ﻿

(Cornell University, 1995-06)
This paper presents a new technique for compiled zero delay logic simulation, and includes extensive experiments that demonstrate its performance on standard benchmarks. Our compiler partitions the circuit into fanout-freeregions ...

• #### Fast Detection of Common Geometric Substructure in Proteins ﻿

(Cornell University, 1998-09)
We consider the problem of identifying common three-dimensional substructures between proteins. Our method is based on comparing the shape of the $\alpha$-carbon backbone structures of the proteins in order to find 3D ...
• #### Fast Firewall Implementations for Software-based Routers ﻿

(Cornell University, 2000-07-14)
Routers must perform packet classification at high speeds to efficiently implement functions such as firewalls. The classification can be based on an arbitrary number of prefix and range fields in the packet header. The ...
• #### The Fast Fourier Transform on Hypercube Parallel Computers ﻿

(Cornell University, 1987-11)
The Fast Fourier Transform appears frequently in scientific computing. Therefore it is desirable to implement it efficiently on parallel computers. In this thesis, we investigate several different aspects of parallel ...
• #### A Fast Method for Interpolating Preconditioning ﻿

(Cornell University, 1971-12)
Given $n$ points $(x_{i},y_{i})$ the best algorithms for finding the unique interpolating polynomial $G(x)$ such that $G(x_{i})=y_{i}$ take $O(n^{2})$ arithmetic operations. If the $(x_{i}$ are known in advance then an ...

Numerous applications in search, databases, machine learning, and computer vision, can benefit from efficient algorithms for near neighbor search. This paper proposes a simple framework for fast near neighbor search in ...
• #### Fast Ordered Multicasts ﻿

(Cornell University, 1991-02)
In this thesis, we present new protocols that provide reliable ordered multicasts to multiple overlapping process groups in the presence of failures. Our protocols provide two kinds of message delivery ordering - causal ...
• #### Fast Parallel Algorithms for the Modular Decomposition ﻿

(Cornell University, 1989-06)
A module in a graph is like a black box: all the vertices in the module look the same to vertices not in the module. This paper gives the first $NC$ algorithm for finding the modular decomposition of a graph. The algorithm ...
• #### Fast Parallel Matrix and GCD Computations ﻿

(Cornell University, 1982-04)
We present parallel algorithms to compute the determinant and characteristic polynomial of n x n-matrices and the gcd of polynomials of degree $\leq$n. The algorithms use parallel time $O(\log^{2}n)$ and a polynomial ...
