Cheap or Flexible Sensor Coverage
We consider dual classes of geometric coverage problems, in which disks, corresponding to coverage regions of sensors, are used to cover a region or set of points in the plane. The...

Computing Best Coverage Path in the Presence of Obstacles in a Sensor Field
We study the presence of obstacles in computing BCP(s, t) (Best Coverage Path between two points s and t) in a 2D field under surveillance by sensors. Consider a set of m line seg...

Satisfiability Allows No Nontrivial Sparsification Unless The Polynomial-Time Hierarchy Collapses
Consider the following two-player communication process to decide a language L: The first player holds the entire input x but is polynomially bounded; the second player is computa...
