Non-trivial linear straight-line programs over the Galois field of two elements occur frequently in applications such as encryption or high-performance computing. Finding the shor...
Tile-based data layout has been applied to achieve various objectives such as minimizing cache conflicts and memory row switching activity. In some applications of tilebased mappi...
The fundamental operation of dominance testing, i.e., determining if one alternative is preferred to another, is in general very hard for methods of reasoning with qualitative cond...
There has been growing interest in the addition of update operations to languages that operate on XML data, for example, XQuery and XJ. These update operations support efficient an...
In recent years dynamic optimization problems have attracted a growing interest from the community of genetic algorithms with several approaches developed to address these problems...
