چکیده

A flaw in the greedy approximation algorithm proposed by Zhang et al. for minimum connected set cover problem is corrected, and a stronger result on the approximation ratio of the modified greedy algorithm is established. The results are now consistent with the existing results on connected dominating set problem which is a special case of the minimum connected set cover problem.

Algorithms for connected set cover problem and fault-tolerant connected set cover problem

Given a set V of elements, S a family of subsets of V , and G a connected graph on vertex set S,a connected set cover (CSC) is a subfamily R of S such that every element in V is covered by at least one set of R, and the subgraph G[R] of G induced by R is connected. If furthermore G[R] is k-connected and every element in V is covered by at least m sets inR, thenR is a (k,m)-CSC. In this paper, w...

Three Approximation Algorithms for Energy-Efficient Query Dissemination in Sensor Database System

Sensor database is a type of database management system which offers sensor data and stored data in its data model and query languages. In this system, when a user poses a query to this sensor database, the query will be disseminated across the database. During this process, each sensor generates data that match the query from its covered area and then returns the data to the original sensor. I...

Self-stabilizing Algorithms for Connected Vertex Cover and Clique Decomposition Problems

In many wireless networks, there is no fixed physical backbone nor centralized network management. The nodes of such a network have to self-organize in order to maintain a virtual backbone used to route messages. Moreover, any node of the network can be a priori at the origin of a malicious attack. Thus, in one hand the backbone must be fault-tolerant and in other hand it can be useful to monit...

Analyzing the Optimal Neighborhood: Algorithms for Budgeted and Partial Connected Dominating Set Problems

We study partial and budgeted versions of the well studied connected dominating set problem. In the partial connected dominating set problem (Pcds), we are given an undirected graph G = (V,E) and an integer n′, and the goal is to find a minimum subset of vertices that induces a connected subgraph of G and dominates at least n′ vertices. We obtain the first polynomial time algorithm with an O(ln...

Automatic QoS-aware Web Services Composition based on Set-Cover Problem

By definition, web-services composition works on developing merely optimum coordination among a number of available web-services to provide a new composed web-service intended to satisfy some users requirements for which a single web service is not (good) enough. In this article, the formulation of the automatic web-services composition is proposed as several set-cover problems and an approxima...
