Primitives for the manipulation of general subdivisions and the computations of Voronoi diagrams
- ACM Tmns. Graph
, 1985
"... The following problem is discussed: Given n points in the plane (the sites) and an arbitrary query point 4, find the site that is closest to q. This problem can be solved by constructing the Voronoi diagram of the given sites and then locating the query point in one of its regions. Two algorithms ar ..."

to the separation of the geometrical and topological aspects of the problem and to the use of two simple but powerful primitives, a geometric predicate and an operator for manipulating the topology of the diagram. The topology is represented by a new data structure for generalized diagrams, that is, embeddings
Computational Aspects of Reordering Plans
- Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
, 1998
"... This article studies the problem of modifying the action ordering of a plan in order to optimise the plan according to various criteria. One of these criteria is to make a plan less constrained and the other is to minimize its parallel execution time. Three candidate definitions are proposed for the ..."

of these computations are NP-hard. However, it is shown that optimal deorderings can be computed in polynomial time...
A modular three-dimensional finite-difference ground-water flow model
- U.S. Geological Survey Techniques of WaterResources Investigations Book 6, Chapter A1
, 1988
"... The primary objective of this course is to discuss the principals of finite difference methods and their applications in groundwater modeling. The emphasis of the class lectures is on the theoretical aspects of numerical modeling (finite difference method). Steps involved in simulation of groundwate ..."

of groundwater systems under various initial/boundary conditions and management schemes will be practiced. The emphasis of the student presentations will be based on published papers concerning the applied aspects of groundwater computer modeling utilizing finite difference and analytical computer models
Pseudo-Random Generation from One-Way Functions
- PROC. 20TH STOC
, 1988
"... Pseudorandom generators are fundamental to many theoretical and applied aspects of computing. We show howto construct a pseudorandom generator from any oneway function. Since it is easy to construct a one-way function from a pseudorandom generator, this result shows that there is a pseudorandom gene ..."

Intelligence without reason
, 1991
"... Computers and Thought are the two categories that together define Artificial Intelligence as a discipline. It is generally accepted that work in Artificial Intelligence over the last thirty years has had a strong influence on aspects of computer architectures. In this paper we also make the converse ..."

A Methodology for Agent-Oriented Analysis and Design
, 1999
"... This paper presents a methodology for agent-oriented analysis and design. The methodology is general, in that it is applicable to a wide range of multi-agent systems, and comprehensive, in that it deals with both the macro-level (societal) and the micro-level (agent) aspects of systems. The methodol ..."

, 1991
"... experiment. Electrophysiologists have described neurons in striate cortex that are selectively sensitive to certain visual properties; for reviews, see Hubel (1988) and DeValois and DeValois (1988). Psychophysicists have inferred the existence of channels that are tuned for certain visual properties ..."
