Constructing Minimum Connected Dominating Set: Algorithmic approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
Connected Dominating Set is popularly used for constructing virtual backbones for broadcasting operation in WSNs. UD Graph is the most suitable model for a wireless sensor network. In this paper we provide an algorithm to find MCDS in UD Graph. It is based on the computation of convex hulls of sensor nodes or vertices. Constructing a virtual backbone in WSNs is an important issue because it reduces unnecessary message transmission or flooding in the network. It helps in reducing interference and energy consumption because a limited number of sensors are engaged in message transmission and thus it helps in improving the Quality of Service (QoS) in the network.

Total dominating set based algorithm for connected dominating set in Ad hoc wireless networks
In an efficient design of routing protocols in ad hoc wireless networks, the connected dominating set (CDS) is widely used as a virtual backbone. To construct the CDS with its size as minimum, many heuristic, meta-heuristic, greedy, approximation and distributed algorithmic approaches have been proposed in the recent years. These approaches mostly concentrated on deriving independent set and th...
متن کاملAlgorithmic, geometric and graphs issues in wireless networks
We present an overview of the recent progress of applying computational geometry techniques to solve some questions, such as topology construction and broadcasting, in wireless ad hoc networks. Treating each wireless device as a node in a two dimensional plane, we model the wireless networks by unit disk graphs in which two nodes are connected if their Euclidean distance is no more than one. We...
متن کاملConstructing weakly connected dominating set for secure clustering in distributed sensor network
Secure clustering problem plays an important role in distributed sensor networks. Weakly Connected Dominating Set (WCDS) is used for solving this problem. Therefore, computing a minimum WCDS becomes an important topic of this research. In this paper, we compare the size of Maximal Independent Set (MIS) and minimum WCDS in unit disk graph. Our analysis shows that five is the least upper bound fo...
متن کاملOn Hop Roman Domination in Trees
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. A subset $Ssubset V$ is a hop dominating setif every vertex outside $S$ is at distance two from a vertex of$S$. A hop dominating set $S$ which induces a connected subgraph is called a connected hop dominating set of $G$. Theconnected hop domination number of $G$, $ gamma_{ch}(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of a connected hopdominating set of $G$...
متن کاملFO and MSO approach to Some Graph Problems: Approximation and Poly time Results
The focus of this paper is two fold. Firstly, we present a logical approach to graph modification problems such as minimum node deletion, edge deletion, edge augmentation problems by expressing them as an expression in first order (FO) logic. As a consequence, it follows that these problems have constant factor polynomial-time approximation algorithms. In particular, node deletion/edge deletion...
