Polynomial time approximation schemes for minimum disk cover problems

TL;DR: This work presents the first polynomial time approximation scheme for the minimum disk cover problem where the best known algorithm can approximate the optimal solution with a large constant factor.

A generic distributed broadcast scheme in ad hoc wireless networks

TL;DR: Simulation results show that new algorithms, which are more efficient than existing ones, can be derived from the generic framework and several existing broadcast algorithms can be viewed as special cases of thegeneric framework with k-hop neighborhood information.

Extractors and Rank Extractors for Polynomial Sources

TL;DR: This paper constructs explicit deterministic extractors from polynomial sources, namely from distributions sampled by low degree multivariate polynomials over finite fields, and employs a theorem of Bombieri, giving a character sum estimate for polynmials defined over curves.

The Within-Strip Discrete Unit Disk Cover Problem.

TL;DR: It is proved that the Within-Strip Discrete Unit Disk Cover (WSDUDC) problem is NP-complete on strips of any xed height, which is the most interesting result from a theoretical standpoint.

Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness

TL;DR: The second edition of a quarterly column as discussed by the authors provides a continuing update to the list of problems (NP-complete and harder) presented by M. R. Garey and myself in our book "Computers and Intractability: A Guide to the Theory of NP-Completeness,” W. H. Freeman & Co., San Francisco, 1979.
