The (axis-parallel) stabbing number of a given set of line segments is the maximum number of segments that can be intersected by any one (axis-parallel) line. We investigate probl...
Recent research in decision theoretic planning has focussedon making the solution of Markov decision processes (MDPs) more feasible. We develop a family of algorithms for structur...

We study the worst-case communication complexity of distributed algorithms computing a path problem based on stationary distributions of random walks in a network G with the caveat...
