Building tight and conservative enclosures of the solution set is of crucial importance in the design of efficient complete solvers for numerical constraint satisfaction problems (NCSPs). This paper proposes a novel generic algorithm enabling the cooperati ...
The fundamentals of interval analysis on directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) for global optimization and constraint propagation have recently been proposed in Schichl and Neumaier (J. Global Optim. 33, 541-562, 2005). For representing numerical problems, the au ...
In the Information Embedding Problem one is given a piece of data which can be altered only conditionally, for example only at certain places. One is then asked to embed an arbitrary message into the data by only applying admissible changes to the data. Th ...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) comprise a fast developing research area with a vast spectrum of applications. A WSN design is influenced by many factors such as transmission errors, network topology and power consumption. Consequently, developing a WSN app ...
This paper presents algorithms for computing the Gröbner fan of an arbitrary polynomial ideal. The computation involves enumeration of all reduced Gröbner bases of the ideal. Our algorithms are based on a uniform definition of the Gröbner fan that applies ...
Network tomography infers internal network characteristics by sending and collecting probe packets from the network edge. Traditional tomographic techniques for general topologies typically use a mesh of multicast trees and/or unicast paths to cover the en ...

The pioneering paper by H. Schichl and A. Neumaier has founded the fundamentals of interval analysis on DAGs for global optimization, including a fundamental of constraint propagation. In this paper, we extend the constraint propagation technique for solvi ...
Comparing the Performance of Two Consensus Algorithms with Centralized and Decentralized Communication Schemes Peter Urban and Andre Schiper Protocols that solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed systems. While ...
A hybrid ad hoc network is a structure-based network that is extended using multi-hop communications. Indeed, in this kind of network, the existence of a communication link between the mobile station and the base station is not required: A mobile station t ...
