Cook's construction from 1971 [4] shows that any two-way deterministic pushdown automaton (2DPDA) can be simulated in time O(n), where n is the length of its input string, and...
In this paper we investigate the use of preprocessing when solving Quantified Boolean Formulas (QBF). Many different problems can be efficiently encoded as QBF instances, and there...
Routing FPGAs is a challenging problem because of the relative scarcity of routing resources, both wires and connection points. This can lead either to slow implementations caused...
In order to interact successfully in social situations, a robot must be able to observe others' actions and base its own behavior on its beliefs about their intentions. Many ...
