ETH Flippers Approach to Parallel Reconfiguration of Triangulations: SAT Formulation and Heuristics (CG Challenge)

Authors: Lorenzo Battini and Marko Milenković

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 367, 42nd International Symposium on Computational Geometry (SoCG 2026)

Abstract
We describe the algorithms used by the ETH Flippers team in the CG:SHOP 2026 Challenge. Each instance consists of a set of triangulations on a common point set, and the objective is to find a central triangulation that minimizes the total parallel flip distance to the input set. Our strategy combines an exact solver for small and medium-sized instances with a suite of heuristics for larger instances. For the exact approach, we formulate the problem as a SAT instance with XOR clauses to model edge transitions across multiple rounds, further optimized by lower bounds derived from exact pairwise distances. For larger instances, we use a greedy local search and edge-coloring techniques to identify maximal sets of independent flips. Our approach ranked second overall and first in the junior category, computing provably optimal solutions for 186 out of 250 instances.

A Survey of Real-Time Support, Analysis, and Advancements in ROS 2

Authors: Daniel Casini, Jian-Jia Chen, Jing Li, Federico Reghenzani, and Harun Teper

Published in: LITES, Volume 11, Issue 1 (2026). Leibniz Transactions on Embedded Systems, Volume 11, Issue 1

Abstract
The Robot Operating System 2 (ROS 2) has emerged as a relevant middleware framework for robotic applications, offering modularity, distributed execution, and communication. In the last six years, ROS 2 has drawn increasing attention from the real-time systems community and industry. This survey presents a comprehensive overview of research efforts that analyze, enhance, and extend ROS 2 to support real-time execution. We first provide a detailed description of the internal scheduling mechanisms of ROS 2 and its layered architecture, including the interaction with DDS-based communication and other communication middleware. We then review key contributions from the literature, covering timing analysis for both single- and multi-threaded executors, metrics such as response time, reaction time, and data age, and different communication modes. The survey also discusses community-driven enhancements to the ROS 2 runtime, including new executor algorithm designs, real-time GPU management, and microcontroller support via micro-ROS. Furthermore, we summarize techniques for bounding DDS communication delays, message filters, and profiling tools that have been developed to support analysis and experimentation. To help systematize this growing body of work, we introduce taxonomies that classify the surveyed contributions based on different criteria. This survey aims to guide both researchers and practitioners in understanding and improving the real-time capabilities of ROS 2.

How Robust Are Synchronous Consensus Protocols?

Authors: Nenad Milošević, Daniel Cason, Zarko Milošević, and Fernando Pedone

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 324, 28th International Conference on Principles of Distributed Systems (OPODIS 2024)

Abstract
Synchronous Byzantine fault-tolerant (BFT) protocols have long been a reality in an academic setting, yet their practicality remains debated. The main concern of skeptics of synchronous systems is that the correctness of these protocols depends on the timely delivery of all messages within a predefined synchronous bound, Δ. This dependency creates a challenging tradeoff between protocol correctness and performance, as Δ directly impacts both. In this paper, we examine this tradeoff in detail. Specifically, we introduce BoundBFT, a new synchronous BFT consensus protocol. We analyze how BoundBFT’s correctness can be compromised and use this analysis to design and implement the most effective attack strategies that malicious processes could employ. Furthermore, we experimentally determine the synchronous bound Δ that provides sufficient confidence in maintaining protocol correctness even in the presence of malicious replicas. Finally, we apply this discovered bound to BoundBFT, evaluate its performance, and compare it to state-of-the-art synchronous and partially synchronous protocols.

Low-Power Reconfigurable Architectures for High-Performance Mobile Nodes

Authors: Matthias Hanke, Tim Kranich, Mladen Berekovic, and Yannis Papaefstathiou

Published in: Dagstuhl Seminar Proceedings, Volume 10281, Dynamically Reconfigurable Architectures (2010)

Abstract
Modern embedded systems have an emerging demand on high performance and low power circuits. Traditionally special functional units for each application are developed separately. These are plugged to a general purpose processors to extend its instruction set making it an application specific instruction set processor. As this strategy reaches its boundaries in area and complexity reconfigurable architectures propose to be more flexible. Thus combining both approaches to a reconfigurable application specific processor is going to be the upcoming solution for future embedded systems.
