We study the impact of backbones in optimization and approximation problems. We show that some optimization problems like graph coloring resemble decision problems, with problem h...
The Metric Labeling problem is an elegant and powerful mathematical model capturing a wide range of classification problems. The input to the problem consists of a set of labels a...
We consider decentralized control of Markov decision processes and give complexity bounds on the worst-case running time for algorithms that find optimal solutions. Generalization...

The energy-aware design for electronic systems has been an important issue in hardware and/or software implementations, especially for embedded systems. This paper targets a synth...
In this paper, we consider the checkpoint problem in which given an undirected graph G, a set of sourcedestinations {(s1, t1), (s1, t1), . . . , (sk, tk)} and a set of fixed paths...
