Our previous research on one-probe access to large collections of data indexed by alphanumeric keys has produced the first practical minimal perfect hash functions for this proble...
This paper studies inductive definitions involving binders, in which aliasing between free and bound names is permitted. Such aliasing occurs in informal specifications of operatio...
This paper addresses the problem of lossy compression of arrangements. Given an arrangement of n lines in the plane, we show how to construct another arrangement consisting of man...
Simulation optimization (SO) is the process of finding the optimum design of a system whose performance measure(s) are estimated via simulation. We propose some ideas to improve o...
Hypertree decomposition has been shown to be the most general CSP decomposition method. However, so far the exact methods are not able to find optimal hypertree decompositions of...
