Given a set of n strings of length L and a radius d, the closest string problem (CSP for short) asks for a string tsol that is within a Hamming distance of d to each of the given ...
A common problem in the operation of mission critical control systems is that of determining the future value of a physical quantity based upon past measurements of it or of relat...
The problem of minimally modifying a plan in response to changes in the specification of the planning problem has already been investigated in the literature. In this paper we cons...
We describe three applications in computational learning theory of techniques and ideas recently introduced in the study of parameterized computational complexity. (1) Using param...

We describe a set of necessary conditions for a given graph to be the visibility graph of a simple polygon. For every graph satisfying these conditions we show that a uniform rank ...
