Query containment is a fundamental algorithmic problem in database query processing and optimization. Under set semantics, the query-containment problem for conjunctive queries ha...
We consider the problem of approximating a set P of n points in Rd by a j-dimensional subspace under the p measure, in which we wish to minimize the sum of p distances from each p...

Abstract. In this paper, a real-life routing and scheduling problem encountered is addressed. The problem, which consists in optimizing the delivery of fluids by tank trucks on a ...
abstract NP-hard optimization problem, in a general sense. From the observation that, intuitively, there are many connections among categorical concepts and structural complexity n...

In this paper, we propose a Quantified Distributed Constraint Optimization problem (QDCOP) that extends the framework of Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOPs). DCOP...
