Modular decomposition is a thoroughly investigated topic inmany areas such as switching theory, reliability theory, game theory andgraph theory. We propose an O(mn)-algorithm for the recognition of amodular set of a monotone Boolean function f with m prime implicantsand n variables. Using this...

The ability to accurately estimate the extent to which the failure of a bank disrupts the financial system is very valuable for regulators of the financial system. One important part of the financial system is the interbank payment system. This paper develops a robust measure, SinkRank, that...
