The study in mobile ad-hoc networks (MANET) is facing challenges brought by recent discovery of non-exponential behavior of the inter-contact time distribution of mobile nodes. In...
—The problem of minimum cost in-network fusion of measurements, collected from distributed sensors via multihop routing is considered. A designated fusion center performs an opti...

We consider the classical vertex cover and set cover problems with the addition of hard capacity constraints. This means that a set (vertex) can only cover a limited number of its...
If V is a set of n points in the unit square [0, 1]2 , and if R : V + is an assignment of positive real numbers (radii) to to those points, define a graph G(R) as follows: {v, w}...
We provide combinatorial algorithms for the unsplittable flow problem (UFP) that either match or improve the previously best results. In the UFP we are given a (possibly directed)...
