Given a convex polygon P with m vertices and a set S of n points in the plane, we consider the problem of nding a placement of P that contains the maximum number of points in S. W...
Image similarity search is a fundamental problem in computer vision. Efficient similarity search across large image databases depends critically on the availability of compact ima...

Recent statistical performance surveys of search algorithms in difficult combinatorial problems have demonstrated the benefits of randomising and restarting the search procedure. ...
† In this paper, we propose a parallel randomized algorithm, called Parallel Fast Assignment using Search Technique (PFAST), for scheduling parallel programs represented by direc...
Consider an n-vertex graph G = (V, E) of maximum degree ∆, and suppose that each vertex v ∈ V hosts a processor. The processors are allowed to communicate only with their neig...
