We present a general framework for approximating several NP-hard problems that have two underlying properties in common. First, the problems we consider can be formulated as intege...
Identifying repeating structural regularities in circuits allows the minimization of synthesis, optimization, and layout e orts. We introduce in this paper a novel method for ident...
We study the problem of finding optimal covers of polygonal regions using multiple mobile guards. By our definition, a point is covered if, at some time, it lies within the convex...

— Fast spreading worms are a reality, as amply demonstrated by worms such as Slammer, which reached its peak propagation in a matter of minutes. With these kinds of fast spreadin...

Spline curves are useful in a variety of geometric modeling and graphics applications and covering problems abound in practical settings. This work defines a class of covering dec...
