— The service-oriented architecture has come a long way in solving the problem of reusability of existing software resources. Grid applications today are composed of a large numb...
We initiate the study of sublinear-time algorithms in the external memory model [14]. In this model, the data is stored in blocks of a certain size B, and the algorithm is charged...

We revisit the problem of computing shortest obstacle-avoiding paths among obstacles in three dimensions. We prove new hardness results, showing, e.g., that computing Euclidean sh...
