Optimal strategies to track and capture a predictable target
— We present an O(n log1+ε n)-time algorithm for computing the optimal robot motion that maintains lineof-sight visibility between a target moving inside a polygon with n vertic...

Optimal Sampling Strategies in Quicksort
It is well known that the performance of quicksort can be improved by selecting the median of a sample of elements as the pivot of each partitioning stage. For large samples the pa...

Genetic algorithms and mixed integer linear programs for optimal strategies in a student's "sports" activity
This paper uses an entertaining student "sports" game to illustrate that GAs can be adapted to problems with uncertain properties and complexity. These problems can be s...

Specialization as an optimal strategy under varying external conditions
— We present an investigation of specialization when considering the execution of collaborative tasks by a robot swarm. Specifically, we consider the stick-pulling problem firs...
