Motivated by applications in computer graphics, visualization, and scienti c computation, we study the computational complexity of the following problem: Given a set S of n points...
Polynomial time preprocessing to reduce instance size is one of the most commonly deployed heuristics to tackle computationally hard problems. In a parameterized problem, every in...

Abstract. Kernelizations are an important tool in designing fixed parameter algorithms for parameterized decision problems. We introduce an analogous notion for counting problems,...
Modern computer systems are called on to deal with billions of events every second, whether they are instructions executed, memory locations accessed, or packets forwarded. This p...
Thing-oriented programming (TP) is an emerging programming model which overcomes some of the limitations of current practice in software development in general and of object-orient...
