Approximating minimum-power edge-multicovers
Given a graph with edge costs, the power of a node is the maximum cost of an edge incident to it, and the power of a graph is the sum of the powers of its nodes. Motivated by appli...

Bandwidth exchange: an energy conserving incentive mechanism for cooperation
Cooperative forwarding in wireless networks has shown to yield rate and diversity gains, but it incurs energy costs borne by the cooperating nodes. In this paper we consider an inc...

Better Bounds for Incremental Frequency Allocation in Bipartite Graphs
We study frequency allocation in wireless networks. A wireless network is modeled by an undirected graph, with vertices corresponding to cells. In each vertex we have a certain nu...
