Finding shortest contractible and shortest separating cycles in embedded graphs
We give a polynomial-time algorithm to find a shortest contractible cycle (i.e. a closed walk without repeated vertices) in a graph embedded in a surface. This answers a question ...

Guaranteed Boxed Localization in MANETs by Interval Analysis and Constraints Propagation Techniques
Abstract—In this contribution, we propose an original algorithm for self-localization in mobile ad-hoc networks. The proposed technique, based on interval analysis, is suited to ...
