We consider optimization problems that can be formulated as minimizing the cost of a feasible solution wT x over an arbitrary combinatorial feasible set F {0, 1}n . For these pro...
This paper addresses the following optimization problem in a plane multihop wireless networks under the physical interference model: From a given a set of communication links whose...
