We consider problems of geometric exploration and selfdeployment for simple robots that can only sense the combinatorial (non-metric) features of their surroundings. Even with suc...
The (axis-parallel) stabbing number of a given set of line segments is the maximum number of segments that can be intersected by any one (axis-parallel) line. We investigate probl...
Power system defensive islanding is an efficient way to avoid catastrophic wide area blackouts, such as the 2003 North American Blackout. Finding defensive islands of large-scale ...

Many knowledge representation mechanisms are based on tree-like structures, thus symbolizing the fact that certain pieces of information are related in one sense or another. There ...
