Short Labels for Lowest Common Ancestors in Trees
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...

Minimizing Movement: Fixed-Parameter Tractability
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...

Output-Sensitive Algorithms for Enumerating Minimal Transversals for Some Geometric Hypergraphs
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...
