Multi-guard covers for polygonal regions
We study the problem of finding optimal covers of polygonal regions using multiple mobile guards. By our definition, a point is covered if, at some time, it lies within the convex...

Optimality and Competitiveness of Exploring Polygons by Mobile Robots
Abstract. A mobile robot, represented by a point moving along a polygonal line in the plane, has to explore an unknown polygon and return to the starting point. The robot has a sen...

Optimal Empty Pseudo-Triangles in a Point Set
Given n points in the plane, we study three optimization problems of computing an empty pseudo-triangle: we consider minimizing the perimeter, maximizing the area, and minimizing ...

Toward Spatial Joins for Polygons
Efficient evaluation of spatial join is an important issue in spatial databases. The traditional evaluation strategy is to perform a join of “minimum bounding rectangles” (mbr...

Equity-Efficiency Bicriteria Location with Squared Euclidean Distances
A facility has to be located within a given region taking two criteria of equity and efficiency into account. Equity is sought by minimizing the inequality in the inhabitant-facil...
