We consider the problem of finding a shortest cycle (freely) homotopic to a given simple cycle on a compact, orientable surface. For this purpose, we use a pants decomposition of...
While there have been intensive efforts in developing better 3D flow visualization techniques, little attention has been paid to the design of better user interfaces and more effe...
Consider the problem of transporting a set of objects between the vertices of a simple graph by a vehicle that traverses the edges of the graph. The problem of finding a shortest...
Existing methods place data or code in scratchpad memory, i.e., SPM by either relying on heuristics or resorting to integer programming or mapping it to a graph coloring problem. ...
We study the two-dimensional version of the bin packing problem with conflicts. We are given a set of (two-dimensional) squares V = {1, 2, . . . , n} with sides s1, s2 . . . , sn ...
