Covering a Set of Points with a Minimum Number of Lines
We consider the minimum line covering problem: given a set S of n points in the plane, we want to find the smallest number l of straight lines needed to cover all n points in S. W...

Assigning Sensors to Missions with Demands
We introduce Semi-Matching with Demands (SMD), which models a certain problem in sensor networks of assigning individual sensors to sensing tasks. If there are multiple sensing tas...

Why Large Closest String Instances Are Easy to Solve in Practice
We initiate the study of the smoothed complexity of the Closest String problem by proposing a semi-random model of Hamming distance. We restrict interest to the optimization versio...

Relay node placement in large scale wireless sensor networks
Scalability and extended lifetime are two critical design goals of any large scale wireless sensor network. A two-tiered network model has been proposed recently for this purpose....
