Instance-Optimal Geometric Algorithms
We prove the existence of an algorithm A for computing 2-d or 3-d convex hulls that is optimal for every point set in the following sense: for every set S of n points and for ever...

Dynamic Connectivity: Connecting to Networks and Geometry
Dynamic connectivity is a well-studied problem, but so far the most compelling progress has been confined to the edge-update model: maintain an understanding of connectivity in a...

Detecting and eliminating memory leaks using cyclic memory allocation
We present and evaluate a new technique for detecting and eliminating memory leaks in programs with dynamic memory allocation. This technique observes the execution of the program...

Hypertree Decompositions: Structure, Algorithms, and Applications
We review the concepts of hypertree decomposition and hypertree width from a graph theoretical perspective and report on a number of recent results related to these concepts. We al...
