The Complexity of Acyclic Conjunctive Queries
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...

The Complexity of Rooted Phylogeny problems
Several computational problems in phylogenetic reconstruction can be formulated as restrictions of the following general problem: given a formula in conjunctive normal form where ...

Event-based constraints for sensornet programming
We propose a sensornet programming model based on declarative spatio-temporal constraints on events only, not sensors. Where previous approaches conflate events and sensors becaus...

An Improved Integer Local Search for Complex Scheduling Problems
We consider complex scheduling problems that can be captured as optimization under hard and soft constraints. The objective of such an optimization problem is to satisfy as many h...
