It is known that for any class C closed under union and intersection, the Boolean closure of C, the Boolean hierarchy over C, and the symmetric difference hierarchy over C all are ...
An emerging class of data-intensive applications involve the geographically dispersed extraction of complex scientific information from very large collections of measured or compu...

Abstract—In this paper we ask which properties of a distributed network can be computed from a few amount of local information provided by its nodes. The distributed model we con...
We develop a computational model of shape that extends existing Riemannian models of shape of curves to multidimensional objects of general topological type. We construct shape sp...

Heterogeneous object design is an active research area in recent years. The conventional CAD modeling approaches only provide geometry and topology of the object, but do not conta...
