Dear Dr. Vaidya,

Please find a copy of our submission in PS format. This paper was
presented at 1998 ICDCS and was invited for a special issue of IEEE
Trans. on Computers. Just recently, I was notified that the special issue
has been cancelled and our paper was not reviewed.

Please let me know if I can be of help in speeding up the processing of
the paper.

With the best regards,
Venky
