چکیده

In this paper we consider 1-movable dominating sets, motivated by the use of sensors employed to detect certain events in networks, where the sensors have a limited ability to react under changing conditions in the network. A 1-movable dominating set is a dominating set S ⊆ V (G) such that for every v ∈ S, either S − {v} is a dominating set, or there exists a vertex u ∈ (V (G) − S) ∩ N(v) such that (S − {v}) ∪ {u} is a dominating set. We present computational complexity results and bounds on the size of 1-movable dominating sets in arbitrary graphs. We also give a polynomial time algorithm to find minimum 1-movable dominating sets for trees. We conclude by extending this idea to k-movable dominating sets.

Incremental Construction of k-Dominating Sets in Wireless Sensor Networks

Given a graph G, a k-dominating set of G is a subset S of its vertices with the property that every vertex of G is either in S or has at least k neighbors in S. We present a new incremental local algorithm to construct a k-dominating set. The algorithm constructs a monotone family of dominating sets D1 ⊆ D2 . . . ⊆ Di . . . ⊆ Dk such that each Di is an i-dominating set. For unit disk graphs, th...

Energy-Efficient and Connected D-Hop Dominating Sets in Wireless Sensor Networks

With a small battery equiped in each sensor, a large number of sensor are deployed in a specified area for many different application. Each sensor will perform two simple tasks of collecting (sensing) the surrounding inviroment and delivering the information to the central. While the equiped battery is irreplaceable, many researches concentrate on the extending the networks formed by these sens...

Improving Energy-Efficient Target Coverage in Visual Sensor Networks

Target coverage is one of the important problems in visual sensor networks. The coverage should be accompanied with an efficient use of energy in order to increase the network lifetime. In this paper, we address the maximum lifetime for visual sensor networks (MLV) problem by maximizing the network lifetime while covering all the targets. For this purpose, we develop a simulated annealing (SA) ...

Experimental Study of Independent and Dominating Sets in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Graph Coloring Algorithms

The domatic partition problem seeks to maximize the partitioning of the nodes of the network into disjoint dominating sets. These sets represent a series of virtual backbones for wireless sensor networks to be activated successively, resulting in more balanced energy consumption and increased network robustness. In this study, we address the domatic partition problem in random geometric graphs ...
