    The term “productive aging” refers to the participation of older adults in different activities that contribute to generating goods and services and develop the capacity to produce goods and services. In that sense, it includes both the economic activity of this group – serving in the paid workforce – and its social productivity, understood as volunteer activities (Bass et al. 1993). In the broader sense, “productive aging” can...

  • Distinguishing views in symmetric networks: A tight lower bound

    Publication

    The view of a node in a port-labeled network is an infinite tree encoding all walks in the network originating from this node. We prove that for any integers n ≥ D ≥ 1, there exists a port-labeled network with at most n nodes and diameter at most D which contains a pair of nodes whose (infinite) views are different, but whose views truncated to depth Omega( D log(n/ D )) are identical.
