Abstract. In this paper, we consider the minimization of a relevant energy consumption related cost function in the context of sensor networks where correlated sources are generate...
We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
The general problem of robust optimization is this: one of several possible scenarios will appear tomorrow, but things are more expensive tomorrow than they are today. What should...
We consider the planar point location problem from the perspective of expected search time. We are given a planar polygonal subdivision S and for each polygon of the subdivision t...
The management of large databases of hierarchical (e.g., multi-scale or multilevel) image features is a common problem in object recognition. Such structures are often represented ...
