  1. A Note on: `Algorithms for Connected Set Cover Problem and Fault-Tolerant Connected Set Cover Problem'.

    Authors: Qing Zhao, Wei Ren
    Subjects: Data Structures and Algorithms
    Abstract

    A flaw in the greedy approximation algorithm proposed by Zhang et al. for
    minimum connected set cover problem is corrected, and a stronger result on the
    approximation ratio of the modified greedy algorithm is established. The
    results are now consistent with the existing results on connected dominating
    set problem which is a special case of the minimum connected set cover problem.

  2. On the Connectivity and Multihop Delay of Ad Hoc Cognitive Radio Networks.

    Authors: Qing Zhao, Wei Ren, Ananthram Swami
    Subjects: Networking and Internet Architecture
    Abstract

    We analyze the multihop delay of ad hoc cognitive radio networks, where the
    transmission delay of each hop consists of the propagation delay and the
    waiting time for the availability of the communication channel (i.e., the
    occurrence of a spectrum opportunity at this hop). Using theories and
    techniques from continuum percolation and ergodicity, we establish the scaling
    law of the minimum multihop delay with respect to the source-destination
    distance in cognitive radio networks.
