— The minimum disc cover set can be used to construct the dominating set on the fly for energy-efficient communications in mobile ad hoc networks. The approach used to compute ...
An instance of the generalized partial cover problem consists of a ground set U and a family of subsets S 2U . Each element e U is associated with a profit p(e), whereas each su...
