Thresholded Covering Algorithms for Robust and Max-min Optimization
The general problem of robust optimization is this: one of several possible scenarios will appear tomorrow, but things are more expensive tomorrow than they are today. What should...

Relay Placement for Higher Order Connectivity in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract— Sensors typically use wireless transmitters to communicate with each other. However, sensors may be located in a way that they cannot even form a connected network (e.g...

A Framework for Battery-Aware Sensor Management
A distributed sensor network (DSN) designed to cover a given region R, is said to be alive if there is at least one subset of sensors that can collectively cover (sense) the regio...

Connected facility location via random facility sampling and core detouring
We present a simple randomized algorithmic framework for connected facility location problems. The basic idea is as follows: We run a black-box approximation algorithm for the unc...
