Abstract. A mobile robot, represented by a point moving along a polygonal line in the plane, has to explore an unknown polygon and return to the starting point. The robot has a sen...
We evaluate the practical performance of labeling schemes for lowest common ancestors in trees. We develop different variants for encoding the labels. We then perform a thorough e...
Abstract. We study an extensive class of movement minimization problems which arise from many practical scenarios but so far have little theoretical study. In general, these proble...

The purpose of this brief note is to describe recent work in the area of cuckoo hashing, including a clear description of several open problems, with the hope of spurring further r...
Consider the robust network design problem of finding a minimum cost network with enough capacity to route all traffic demand matrices in a given polytope. We investigate the impa...
We give a general framework for the problem of finding all minimal hitting sets of a family of objects in Rd by another. We apply this framework to the following problems: (i) hit...
In this paper we investigate the problem of partitioning an input string T in such a way that compressing individually its parts via a basecompressor C gets a compressed output th...
Dial-a-Ride problems consist of a set V of n vertices in a metric space (denoting travel time between vertices) and a set of m objects represented as source-destination pairs {(si,...
Abstract. We evaluate the performance of FPT algorithms for the directed feedback vertex set problem (DFVS). We propose several new data reduction rules for DFVS. which can signi...
