We address the problem of effective reuse of subproblem solutions in dynamic programming. In dynamic programming, a memoed solution of a subproblem can be reused for another if th...
Markov Decision Processes (MDP) have been widely used as a framework for planning under uncertainty. They allow to compute optimal sequences of actions in order to achieve a given...
In 2000 Alber et al. [SWAT 2000 ] obtained the first parameterized subexponential algorithm on undirected planar graphs by showing that k-DOMINATING SET is solvable in time 2O( ...

Let G be an unweighted graph of complexity n cellularly embedded in a surface (orientable or not) of genus g. We describe improved algorithms to compute (the length of) a shortest...
High efficiency in capacity utilization and fast restoration are two primary goals of survivable design in optical networks. Shared backup path protection has been shown to be effi...
