Area Based Beaconless Reliable Broadcasting in Sensor Networks
: We consider the broadcasting problem in sensor networks where the nodes have no prior knowledge of their neighbourhood. We describe several Area-based Beaconless Broadcasting Alg...

Inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set in Bounded Degree Graphs
We study the inapproximability of Vertex Cover and Independent Set on degree d graphs. We prove that: • Vertex Cover is Unique Games-hard to approximate to within a factor 2−(...

Constrained relay node placement in wireless sensor networks: formulation and approximations
—One approach to prolong the lifetime of a wireless sensor network (WSN) is to deploy some relay nodes to communicate with the sensor nodes, other relay nodes, and the base stati...

The Covert Set-Cover Problem with Application to Network Discovery
We address a version of the set-cover problem where we do not know the sets initially (and hence referred to as covert) but we can query an element to find out which sets contain ...

Non-cooperative facility location and covering games
Abstract. We study a general class of non-cooperative games coming from combinatorial covering and facility location problems. A game for k players is based on an integer programmi...
