Consistencies are properties of Constraint Networks (CNs) that can be exploited in order to make inferences. When a significant amount of such inferences can be performed, CNs ar...
In this paper, we consider the communications involved in the execution of a complex application, deployed on a heterogeneous platform. Such applications extensively use macro-com...
We study exploration problems where a robot has to construct a complete map of an unknown environment using a path that is as short as possible. In the rst problem setting we cons...
This paper deals with the problem of constructing a Hamiltonian cycle of optimal weight, called TSP. We show that TSP is 2/3-differential approximable and can not be differential a...
Edge contraction is shown to be a useful mechanism to improve lower bound heuristics for treewidth. A successful lower bound for treewidth is the degeneracy: the maximum over all ...
