Approximating Spanning Trees with Inner Nodes Cost
We consider the practical NP-complete problem of finding a minimum weight spanning tree with both edge weights and inner nodes weights. We present two polynomial time algorithms ...

Monte-Carlo Sampling for NP-Hard Maximization Problems in the Framework of Weighted Parsing
Abstract. The purpose of this paper is (1) to provide a theoretical justification for the use of Monte-Carlo sampling for approximate resolution of NP-hard maximization problems in...

Distributed Sleep Scheduling in Wireless Sensor Networks via Fractional Domatic Partitioning
We consider setting up sleep scheduling in sensor networks. We formulate the problem as an instance of the fractional domatic partition problem and obtain a distributed approximati...

Minimum Dominating Set Approximation in Graphs of Bounded Arboricity
Abstract. Since in general it is NP-hard to solve the minimum dominating set problem even approximatively, a lot of work has been dedicated to central and distributed approximation...
