We present several applications in computational geometry of Megiddo's parametric searching technique. These applications include: (1) Finding the minimum Hausdorff distance ...
We consider algorithms for finding the optimal location of a simple transportation device, that we call a moving walkway, consisting of a pair of points in the plane between which ...
It is shown that for a set S of n pairwise disjoint axis-parallel line segments in the plane there is a simple alternating path of length ( n). This bound is best possible in the...
For two points p and q in the plane, a straight line h, called a highway, and a real v > 1, we define the travel time (also known as the city distance) from p and q to be the ...

We studied a number of measures that characterize the difficulty of a classification problem. We compared a set of real world problems to random combinations of points in this mea...
