Limits and Applications of Group Algebras for Parameterized Problems
The algebraic framework introduced in [Koutis, Proc. of the 35th ICALP 2008] reduces several combinatorial problems in parameterized complexity to the problem of detecting multili...

Cluster Tree Elimination for Distributed Constraint Optimization with Quality Guarantees
Some distributed constraint optimization algorithms use a linear number of messages in the number of agents, but of exponential size. This is often the main limitation for their pr...

Inventory placement in acyclic supply chain networks
The strategic safety stock placement problem is a constrained separable concave minimization problem and so is solvable, in principle, as a sequence of mixed-integer programming p...

Autonomous networked robots for the establishment of wireless communication in uncertain emergency response scenarios
During a disaster, emergency response operations can benefit from the establishment of a wireless ad hoc network. We propose the use of autonomous robots that move inside a disas...
