Voronoi diagram computations for planar NURBS curves
We present robust and efficient algorithms for computing Voronoi diagrams of planar freeform curves. Boundaries of the Voronoi diagram consist of portions of the bisector curves b...

Varying bandwidth resource allocation problem with bag constraints
We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on a pool of machines. Each job requires multiple machines on which it executes in parallel. For each job, the input specifies release ti...
