Approximation algorithm for minimal convergecast time problem in wireless sensor networks
In this paper we consider how to collect data from sensors deployed in the Euclidean plane in a timeefficient way. We assume that all sensors could adjust their transmission range...

Lower bounds for the relative greedy algorithm for approximating Steiner trees
Abstract. The Steiner tree problem is to find a shortest subgraph that spans a given set of vertices in a graph. This problem is known to be NP-hard and it is well known that a pol...

Fast Algorithms for Constant Approximation k-Means Clustering
In this paper we study the k-means clustering problem. It is well-known that the general version of this problem is NP-hard. Numerous approximation algorithms have been proposed fo...
