Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) represent an important class of networked robotic applications that must be both highly dependable and autonomous. This paper addresses sensor deplo...
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...
In this paper we formulate the combinatorial auction brokering problem as a Set Packing Problem (SPP) and apply a simulated annealing heuristic to solve SPP. Experimental results ...
We present an algorithm for counting the number of integer solutions to selected free variables of a Presburger formula. We represent the Presburger formula as a deterministic fin...
In this paper we consider privacy problems with anonymized transaction databases, i.e., transaction databases where the items are renamed in order to hide sensitive information. In...
