Given a set of jobs, each consisting of a number of weighted intervals on the real line, and a number m of machines, we study the problem of selecting a maximum weight subset of th...
It has been a challenging open problem whether there is a polynomial time approximation algorithm for the Vertex Cover problem whose approximation ratio is bounded by a constant l...
We consider online routing algorithms for finding paths between the vertices of plane graphs. We show (1) there exists a routing algorithm for arbitrary triangulations that has no...

We describe an algorithm for enumerating all vertices, edges and faces of a planar subdivision stored in any of the usual pointer-based representations, while using only a constant...
We establish that the algorithmic complexity of the minimum spanning tree problem is equal to its decision-tree complexity. Specifically, we present a deterministic algorithm to fi...
We describe a genetic segmentation algorithm for image data streams and video. This algorithm operates on segments of a string representation. It is similar to both classical gene...

In this paper, we propose an entity-based style of queries for semistructured data. First, we partition a semistructured data into subgraphs corresponding to real-world entities, ...
The process of fixation identification--separating and labeling fixations and saccades in eye-tracking protocols--is an essential part of eye-movement data analysis and can have a...
Abstract. The depth of a planar embedding is a measure of the topological nesting of the biconnected components of the graph. Minimizing the depth of planar embeddings has importan...
Given a 2-node connected, undirected graph G = (V, E), with n nodes and m edges with real weights, and given a minimum spanning tree (MST) T = (V, ET ) of G, we study the problem o...
