Abstract-- We give efficient sequential and distributed approximation algorithms for strong edge coloring graphs modeling wireless networks. Strong edge coloring is equivalent to c...

—Time slot assignment is essential to provide the calculated bandwidth in a TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access)-based mobile ad hoc network (MANET), which is a focus of attentio...
We address the issue of inapproximability of the wavelength assignment problem in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) optical networks. We prove that in an n-node WDM optical ne...
In this paper we study the range assignment problem in static ad-hoc networks on metric spaces. We consider the h-strong connectivity and h-broadcast problems on trees, high dimens...
We demonstrate that the Linear Multidimensional Assignment Problem with iid random costs is polynomially "-approximable almost surely (a. s.) via a simple greedy heuristic, f...
