Towards Resource Theory of Coherence in Distributed Scenarios
PublicationThe search for a simple description of fundamental physical processes is an important part of quantum theory. One example for such an abstraction can be found in the distance lab paradigm: if two separated parties are connected via a classical channel, it is notoriously difficult to characterize all possible operations these parties can perform. This class of operations is widely known as local operations and classical communication....

On-Line Partitioning for On-Line Scheduling with Resource Conflicts
PublicationWithin this paper, we consider the problem of on-line partitioning the sequence of jobs which are competing for non-sharable resources. As a result of partitioning we get the subsets of jobs that form separate instances of the on-line scheduling problem. The objective is to generate a partition into the minimum number of instances such that the response time of any job in each instance is bounded by a given constant. Our research...
