Finding the best shortcut in a geometric network
Given a Euclidean graph G in Rd with n vertices and m edges we consider the problem of adding a shortcut such that the stretch factor of the resulting graph is minimized. Currentl...

Complexity in geometric SINR
In this paper we study the problem of scheduling wireless links in the geometric SINR model, which explicitly uses the fact that nodes are distributed in the Euclidean plane. We p...

An approximation algorithm for network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions
Building on an existing 2-approximate algorithm for the class of network design problems with downwards-monotone demand functions, many of which are NP-hard, we present an algorith...

Contour Approximation in Sensor Networks
Abstract. We propose a distributed scheme called Adaptive-GroupMerge for sensor networks that, given a parameter k, approximates a geometric shape by a k-vertex polygon. The algori...
