A lower bound for distributed averaging algorithms on the line graph
We derive lower bounds on the convergence speed of a widely used class of distributed averaging algorithms. In particular, we prove that any distributed averaging algorithm whose ...

The Efficiency of Resolution and Davis--Putnam Procedures
We consider several problems related to the use of resolution-based methods for determining whether a given boolean formula in conjunctive normal form is satisfiable. First, build...

Algorithmic Lower Bounds for Problems Parameterized by Clique-width
Many NP-hard problems can be solved efficiently when the input is restricted to graphs of bounded tree-width or clique-width. In particular, by the celebrated result of Courcelle,...

A New Upper Bound for Max-2-Sat: A Graph-Theoretic Approach
In MaxSat, we ask for an assignment which satisfies the maximum number of clauses for a boolean formula in CNF. We present an algorithm yielding a run time upper bound of O (2 K 6....

Incremental Diagnosis of DES by Satisfiability
Abstract. We propose a SAT-based algorithm for incremental diagnosis of discrete-event systems. The monotonicity is ensured by a prediction window that uses the future observations...
