The cost of probabilistic agreement in oblivious robot networks
In this paper, we look at the time complexity of two agreement problems in networks of oblivious mobile robots, namely, at the gathering and scattering problems. Given a set of ro...

Fault Tolerant External Memory Algorithms
Abstract. Algorithms dealing with massive data sets are usually designed for I/O-efficiency, often captured by the I/O model by Aggarwal and Vitter. Another aspect of dealing with ...

An Evolutionary Algorithm for the Block Stacking Problem
Abstract. How has a stack of n blocks to be arranged in order to maximize its overhang over a table edge while being stable? This question can be seen as an example application for...
