Fractional Pebbling and Thrifty Branching Programs
We study the branching program complexity of the tree evaluation problem, introduced in [BCM+09a] as a candidate for separating NL from LogCFL. The input to the problem is a roote...

Multiple Agents RendezVous in a Ring in Spite of a Black Hole
The Rendezvous of anonymous mobile agents in a anonymous network is an intensively studied problem; it calls for k anonymous, mobile agents to gather in the same site. We study thi...

Evaluating hybrid constraint tightening for scheduling agents
Hybrid Scheduling Problems (HSPs) combine temporal and finite-domain variables via hybrid constraints that dictate that specific bounds on temporal constraints rely on assignments...

On the locality of bounded growth
Many large-scale networks such as ad hoc and sensor networks, peer-to-peer networks, or the Internet have the property that the number of independent nodes does not grow arbitrari...

A replica exchange Monte Carlo algorithm for protein folding in the HP model
Background: The ab initio protein folding problem consists of predicting protein tertiary structure from a given amino acid sequence by minimizing an energy function; it is one of...
