An infinite hierarchy in a class of polynomial-time program schemes (2006)
Journal Article
Gault, R., & Stewart, I. (2006). An infinite hierarchy in a class of polynomial-time program schemes. Theory of Computing Systems, 39(5), 753-783. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00224-005-1230-6

We define a class of program schemes RFDPS constructed around notions of forall-loops, repeat-loops, arrays and if-then-else instructions, and which take finite structures as inputs, and we examine the class of problems, denoted RFDPS also, accepted...

The computational complexity of the parallel knock-out problem (2006)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Broersma, H., Johnson, M., Paulusma, D., & Stewart, I. (2006, March). The computational complexity of the parallel knock-out problem. Presented at 7th Latin American Theoretical Informatics Symposium (LATIN 2006), Valdivia, Chile

We consider computational complexity questions related to parallel knock-out schemes for graphs. In such schemes, in each round, each remaining vertex of a given graph eliminates exactly one of its neighbours. We show that the problem of whether, for...
