Many mobile applications rely on the Global Positioning System (GPS) to provide position and location information. However, there are many problems with using GPS in urban environm...
In this paper we consider the problem of efficiently locating cryptographic keys hidden in gigabytes of data, such as the complete file system of a typical PC. We describe efficie...
This paper deals with the problem of merging descriptions of approximate spatial location specified at different levels of granularity. We distinguish between the roughness of an...
We reexamine fundamental problems from computational geometry in the word RAM model, where input coordinates are integers that fit in a machine word. We develop a new algorithm fo...
