We consider the problem of computing efficient strategies for searching in trees. As a generalization of the classical binary search for ordered lists, suppose one wishes to find...
In the MINIMUM BOUNDED DEGREE SPANNING TREE problem, we are given an undirected graph with a degree upper bound Bv on each vertex v, and the task is to find a spanning tree of min...
We present a simple factor 6 algorithm for approximating the optimal multiplicative distortion of embedding (unweighted) graph metrics into tree metrics (thus improving and simplif...

The Dynamic Spatial Approximation Tree (dsa–tree) is a recently proposed data structure for searching in metric spaces. It has been shown that it compares favorably against alte...
—In many applications, it is a basic operation for the sink to periodically collect reports from all sensors. Since the data gathering process usually proceeds for many rounds, i...
