Approximate shortest path algorithms for sequences of pairwise disjoint simple polygons
Assume that two points p and q are given and a finite ordered set of simple polygons, all in the same plane; the basic version of a touring-a-sequence-of-polygons problem (TPP) is...

Processing Unions of Conjunctive Queries with Negation under Limited Access Patterns
We study the problem of answering queries over sources with limited access patterns. The problem is to decide whether a given query Q is feasible, i.e., equivalent to an executable...
