چکیده

In this monograph we survey results from a newly emerging line of research that targets algorithm analysis in the physical interference model. In the main part of our monograph we focus on wireless scheduling: given a set of communication requests, arbitrarily distributed in space, how can these requests be scheduled efficiently? We study the difficulty of this problem and we examine algorithms for wireless scheduling with provable performance guarantees. Moreover, we present a few results for related problems and give additional context.

Multi-layer Clustering Topology Design in Densely Deployed Wireless Sensor Network using Evolutionary Algorithms

Due to the resource constraint and dynamic parameters, reducing energy consumption became the most important issues of wireless sensor networks topology design. All proposed hierarchy methods cluster a WSN in different cluster layers in one step of evolutionary algorithm usage with complicated parameters which may lead to reducing efficiency and performance. In fact, in WSNs topology, increasin...

MLLS: Minimum Length Link Scheduling Under Physical Interference Model

We study a fundamental problem called Minimum Length Link Scheduling (MLS) which is crucial to the efficient operations of wireless networks. Given a set of communication links of arbitrary length spread and assume each link has one unit of traffic demand in wireless networks, the problem MLS seeks a schedule for all links (to satisfy all demands) of minimum number of time-slots such that the l...

Interference-Aware and Cluster Based Multicast Routing in Multi-Radio Multi-Channel Wireless Mesh Networks

Multicast routing is one of the most important services in Multi Radio Multi Channel (MRMC) Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Multicast routing performance in WMNs could be improved by choosing the best routes and the routes that have minimum interference to reach multicast receivers. In this paper we want to address the multicast routing problem for a given channel assignment in WMNs. The channels...
