This paper presents an algorithm, called PCG, for planning the foothold positions of spider-like robots in planar tunnels bounded by piecewise linear walls. The paper focuses on 3-...
Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a popular standard for PC peripheral devices because of its versatile peripheral interconnection specifications. USB not only provides simplified h...
In this paper we give new extremal bounds on polynomial threshold function (PTF) representations of Boolean functions. Our results include the following: • Almost every Boolean ...
Streaming XML documents has many emerging applications. However, in this paper, we show that the restrictions imposed by data streaming are too restrictive for processing twig quer...
Although evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are widely used in practical optimization, their theoretical analysis is still in its infancy. Up to now results on the (expected) runtime ar...
