We consider the rooted orienteering problem: Given a set P of n points in the plane, a starting point r P, and a length constraint B, one needs to find a path starting from r tha...
In their seminal paper in the ACM Transactions on Software Engineering and Methodology, Zave and Jackson established a core ontology for Requirements Engineering (RE) and used it ...
We are given a directed network G = (V, A, u) with vertex set V , arc set A, a source vertex s V , a destination vertex t V , a finite capacity vector u = {uij}ijA, and a positi...
If Alice has x, y, Bob has x, z and Carol has y, z can they determine if x + y + z = N? They can if (say) Alice broadcasts x to Bob and Carol; can they do better? Chandra, Furst, a...
We present a very simple algorithm for the Least Common Ancestor problem. We thus dispel the frequently held notion that an optimal LCA computation is unwieldy and unimplementable...
