Consider the following communication problem, that leads to a new notion of edge coloring. The communication network is represented by a bipartite multigraph, where the nodes on o...
— We consider the problem of link scheduling in a sensor network employing a TDMA MAC protocol. Our link scheduling algorithm involves two phases. In the first phase, we assign ...
We study complexity and approximation of min weighted node coloring in planar, bipartite and split graphs. We show that this problem is NP-complete in planar graphs, even if they a...
A coloring is proper if each color class induces connected components of order one (where the order of a graph is its number of vertices). Here we study relaxations of proper two-c...
We introduce Multi-Trials, a new technique for symmetry breaking for distributed algorithms and apply it to various problems in general graphs. For instance, we present three rand...
