Finding the Optimal Path in 3D Spaces Using EDAs - The Wireless Sensor Networks Scenario
Abstract. In wireless sensor networks where sensors are geographically deployed in 3D spaces, a mobile robot is required to travel to each sensor in order to download the data. The...

A Faster, Better Approximation Algorithm for the Minimum Latency Problem
We give a 7.18-approximation algorithm for the minimum latency problem that uses only O(n log n) calls to the prize-collecting Steiner tree (PCST) subroutine of Goemans and Willia...

How to rank with few errors
We present a polynomial time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the minimum feedback arc set problem on tournaments. A simple weighted generalization gives a PTAS for KemenyYoung ran...
