[ Upstream commit ecc832758a654e375924ebf06a4ac971acb5ce60 ]
The link to the pdf containing the algorithm description is now a dead link; it seems http://www.ifp.illinois.edu/~srikant/ has been moved to https://sites.google.com/a/illinois.edu/srikant/ and none of the original papers can be found there...
I have replaced it with the only working copy I was able to find.
n.b. there is also a copy available at:
http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.296.6350&rep=re...
However, this seems to only be a *cached* version, so I am unsure exactly how reliable that link can be expected to remain over time and have decided against using that one.
