Preprocessing Chains for Fast Dihedral Rotations Is Hard or Even Impossible
We examine a computational geometric problem concerning the structure of polymers. We model a polymer as a polygonal chain in three dimensions. Each edge splits the polymer into t...

Online scheduling of weighted equal-length jobs with hard deadlines on parallel machines
We consider the problem of scheduling a maximum profit selection of equal length jobs on m identical machines. Jobs arrive online over time and the goal is to determine a non-pre...

Efficient hybrid typestate analysis by determining continuation-equivalent states
Typestate analysis determines whether a program violates a set of finite-state properties. Because the typestate-analysis problem is statically undecidable, researchers have propo...

Learning from Examples and Membership Queries with Structured Determinations
It is well known that prior knowledge or bias can speed up learning, at least in theory. It has proved di cult to make constructive use of prior knowledge, so that approximately c...
