Randomized Algorithms on the Mesh
The mesh-connected array is an attractive architecture for parallel machines, and a number of existing parallel machines are based on a mesh topology. In this paper, we survey the ...

Decomposing Coverings and the Planar Sensor Cover Problem
We show that a k-fold covering using translates of an arbitrary convex polygon can be decomposed into Omega(k) covers (using an efficient algorithm). We generalize this result to ...
