Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider the problem of collective exploration of a known n-node edge-weighted graph by k mobile agents that have limited energy but are capable of energy transfers. The agents are initially placed at an arbit...
Article
We consider the problem of searching on a line using n mobile robots, of which at most f are faulty, and the remaining are reliable. The robots start at the same location and move in parallel along the line with ...
Article
We study the barrier coverage problem using relocatable sensor nodes. We assume each sensor can sense an intruder or event inside its sensing range. Sensors are initially located at arbitrary positions on the ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A wireless sensor can detect the presence of an intruder in its sensing range, and is said to cover the portion of a given barrier that intersects with its sensing range. Barrier coverage is achieved by a set ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider several variations of the problems of covering a set of barriers (modeled as line segments) using sensors that can detect any intruder crossing any of the barriers. Sensors are initially located in...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider the problem of monitoring the Euclidean plane using rotating sensors with detection sectors and beam sensors. We assume that intruders can appear anywhere at any time and move arbitrarily fast, and...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A set of sensors establishes barrier coverage of a given line segment if every point of the segment is within the sensing range of a sensor. Given a line segment I, n mobile sensors in arbitrary initial positions...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Satellites collecting data store packets in queues and transmit these packets to ground stations within their view. In a given time step, a ground station may see several satellites, but can receive a packet f...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Given a set S of n sensors in the plane we consider the problem of establishing an ad hoc network from these sensors using directional antennae. We prove that for each given integer 1 ≤ k ≤ 5 there is a strongly ...

Chapter and Conference Paper
The focus of the present paper is on providing a local deterministic algorithm for colouring the edges of Yao-like subgraphs of Unit Disc Graphs. These are geometric graphs such that for some positive integers l,
Chapter and Conference Paper
We give a new local test, called a Half-Space Proximal or HSP test, for extracting a sparse directed or undirected subgraph of a given unit disk graph. The HSP neighbors of each vertex are unique, given a fixed u...
Chapter and Conference Paper
An important technique for discovering routes between two nodes in an ad-hoc network involves applying the face routing algorithm on a planar spanner of the network. Face routing guarantees message delivery in...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider the problem of D-hop virtual path layout in ATM (Asynchronous Transfer Mode) networks. Given a physical network and an all-to-all traffic pattern, the problem consists of designing a virtual network w...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider all-to-all routing problem in an optical ring network that uses the wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM). Since one-hop, all-to-all optical routing in a WDM optical ring of n nodes needs ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
We consider the problem of routing uniform communication instances in switched optical tori that use the wavelength division multplexing (or WDM) approach. A communication instance is called uniform if it consist...
