Lower Bounds on the Computational Power of an Optical Model of Computation
We present lower bounds on the computational power of an optical model of computation called the C2-CSM. We show that C2-CSM time is at least as powerful as sequential space, thus ...

A Plan Fusion Algorithm for Multi-Agent Systems
We introduce an algorithm for cooperative planning in multi-agent systems. The algorithm enables the agents to combine (fuse) their plans in order to increase their joint profits...

Covering Rectilinear Polygons with Axis-Parallel Rectangles
We give an O( log n) factor approximation algorithm for covering a rectilinear polygon with holes using axis-parallel rectangles. This is the first polynomial time approximation a...

Black-Box Constructions of Composable Protocols without Set-Up
Abstract. We present the first black-box construction of a secure multiparty computation protocol that satisfies a meaningful notion of concurrent security in the plain model (wi...

A polynomial solution to the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem on proper interval graphs
: We study a variant of the path cover problem, namely, the k-fixed-endpoint path cover problem, or kPC for short. Given a graph G and a subset T of k vertices of V (G), a k-fixe...
