Scalability is the primary challenge to studying large complex network systems with network emulation. This paper studies topology partitioning, assigning disjoint pieces of the n...

Abstract. We present hardness results, approximation heuristics, and exact algorithms for bottleneck labeled optimization problems arising in the context of graph theory. This long...
Mini-Bucket Elimination (MBE) is a well-known approximation algorithm deriving lower and upper bounds on quantities of interest over graphical models. It relies on a procedure tha...
In a recent paper, Amini et al. introduced a general framework to prove duality theorems between tree decompositions and their dual combinatorial object. They unify all known ad-h...
The class of well-behaved evaluation functions simplifies and makes efficient the handling of numerical attributes; for them it suffices to concentrate on the boundary points in...
