APS algorithms use the basic idea of distance vector routing to find positions in an ad hoc network using only a fraction of landmarks, for example GPS enabled nodes. All the node...
We consider the following scenario. A point robot is placed at some start location ¡ in a 2dimensional scene containing oriented rectangular obstacles. The robot must repeatedly ...
This paper addresses the problem of determining the node locations in ad-hoc sensor networks when only connectivity information is available. In previous work, we showed that the ...
We study the effect of laxity, or slack time, on the online scheduling of broadcasts with deadlines. The laxity of a request is defined to be the ratio between its span (differe...

We consider the complexity of sorting strings in the model that counts comparisons between symbols and not just comparisons between strings. We show that for any set of strings S ...
