Given a set A of m agents and a set I of n items, where agent A ∈ A has utility uA,i for item i ∈ I, our goal is to allocate items to agents to maximize fairness. Specificall...

The (undirected) Node Connectivity Augmentation (NCA) problem is: given a graph J = (V, EJ ) and connectivity requirements {r(u, v) : u, v ∈ V }, find a minimum size set I of n...
We prove an (lg n) cell-probe lower bound on maintaining connectivity in dynamic graphs, as well as a more general trade-off between updates and queries. Our bound holds even if t...
Abstract. This paper presents an application of a hierarchical social (HS) metaheuristic to region-based segmentation. The original image is modelled as a simplified image graph, w...
—Observing that simplicity implies efficiency and scalability, this paper proposes a position-based deployment and routing strategy, and then gives a concrete approach under this...
