Let G be an unweighted graph of complexity n cellularly embedded in a surface (orientable or not) of genus g. We describe improved algorithms to compute (the length of) a shortest...
Recently, there has been much interest in enhancing purely combinatorial formalisms with numerical information. For example, planning formalisms can be enriched by taking resource...
Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymer composed of four bases denoted A, C, G, and U. It is a generally single-stranded molecule where the bases form hydrogen bonds within the same m...
Abstract—This paper studies the problem of distributed computation over a network of wireless sensors. While this problem applies to many emerging applications, to keep our discu...
Mixed Multi-Unit Combinatorial Auctions (MMUCAs) allow agents to bid for bundles of goods to buy, goods to sell, and transformations of goods. In particular, MMUCAs offer a high ...
