The impact of point-to-multipoint traffic concentration on multirate networks design
We consider the problem of multirate network design with point-to-multipoint communications. We give a mathematical formulation for this problem. Using approximations, we show that...

Two-Tiered Constrained Relay Node Placement in Wireless Sensor Networks: Efficient Approximations
In a wireless sensor network, short range multihop transmissions are preferred to prolong the network lifetime due to super-linear nature of energy consumption with communication d...

Buy-at-Bulk Network Design with Protection
We consider approximation algorithms for buy-at-bulk network design, with the additional constraint that demand pairs be protected against edge or node failures in the network. In...

Approximation Algorithms for Data Broadcast in Wireless Networks
—Broadcasting is a fundamental operation in wireless networks and plays an important role in the communication protocol design. In multihop wireless networks, however, interferen...

On Connected Multiple Point Coverage in Wireless Sensor Networks
Abstract-- We consider a wireless sensor network consisting of a set of sensors deployed randomly. A point in the monitored area is covered if it is within the sensing range of a s...
