We present a distributed algorithm that finds a maximal edge packing in O(∆ + log∗ W) synchronous communication rounds in a weighted graph, independent of the number of nodes...
: Under water sensor network is an important research direction in computer science. There are many interesting optimization problems regarding its design, routing and applications...
In this paper, we initiate the study of the approximability of the facility location problem in a distributed setting. In particular, we explore a trade-off between the amount of...
Conventional video summarization methods focus predominantly on summarizing videos along the time axis, such as building a movie trailer. The resulting video trailer tends to reta...
Polynomial time preprocessing to reduce instance size is one of the most commonly deployed heuristics to tackle computationally hard problems. In a parameterized problem, every in...
