Cheap or Flexible Sensor Coverage
We consider dual classes of geometric coverage problems, in which disks, corresponding to coverage regions of sensors, are used to cover a region or set of points in the plane. The...

Coverage by directional sensors in randomly deployed wireless sensor networks
We study a novel "coverage by directional sensors" problem with tunable orientations on a set of discrete targets. We propose a Maximum Coverage with Minimum Sensors (MCM...

Online make-to-order joint replenishment model: primal dual competitive algorithms
In this paper, we study an online make-to-order variant of the classical joint replenishment problem (JRP) that has been studied extensively over the years and plays a fundamental...

Typical properties of winners and losers in discrete optimization
We present a probabilistic analysis for a large class of combinatorial optimization problems containing, e.g., all binary optimization problems defined by linear constraints and a...

An Analysis of Convex Relaxations for MAP Estimation
The problem of obtaining the maximum a posteriori estimate of a general discrete random field (i.e. a random field defined using a finite and discrete set of labels) is known ...
