We begin by observing that (discrete-time) QuasiBirth-Death Processes (QBDs) are equivalent, in a precise sense, to (discrete-time) probabilistic 1-Counter Automata (p1CAs), and b...
The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a generic optimization problem defined by a network of local cost functions defined over discrete variables. It has applicatio...

We investigate the convergence of the price of anarchy after a limited number of moves in the classical multicast communication game when the underlying communication networks is ...
This paper argues that the agent-based simulation approach is just the one appropriate to the social sciences (including economics). Although there were many predecessor approache...
We provideO(n)-timealgorithmsfor constructingthe following types of drawings of n-vertex 3-connectedplanar graphs: 2D convex grid drawings with (3n) (3n=2) area under the edge L1-...
