On the Complexity of Computing Treelength
We resolve the computational complexity of determining the treelength of a graph, thereby solving an open problem of Dourisboure and Gavoille, who introduced this parameter, and a...

Distributed Approximation of Capacitated Dominating Sets
We study local, distributed algorithms for the capacitated minimum dominating set (CapMDS) problem, which arises in various distributed network applications. Given a network graph...

A Tight Analysis of the Maximal Matching Heuristic
We study the worst-case performance of the maximal matching heuristic applied to the Minimum Vertex Cover and Minimum Maximal Matching problems, through a careful analysis of tigh...

Computing approximate shortest paths on convex polytopes
The algorithms for computing a shortest path on a polyhedral surface are slow, complicated, and numerically unstable. We have developed and implemented a robust and efficient algo...

A particle swarm optimization approach for estimating parameter confidence regions
Point estimates of the parameters in real world models convey valuable information about the actual system. However, parameter comparisons and/or statistical inference requires de...
