For a simple graph G=(V,E) with no isolated vertices, total Roman {3}-dominating function(TR3DF) on G is function f:V(G)→{0,1,2,3} having the property that (i) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥3 if f(v)=0; (ii) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥2 f(v)=1; and (iii) every vertex v f(v)≠0 has neighbor u f(u)≠0 for v∈V(G). The weight of TR3DF f sum f(V)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) minimum called {3}-domination number denoted by γt{R3}(G). In this paper, we...

Many signaling or data forwarding operations involve the broadcasting of packets, which incurs considerable collisions in ad hoc networks based on a contention-based channel access protocol. We propose the Threehop Horizon Pruning (THP) algorithm to compute two-hop connected dominating set (TCDS) using only local topology information (i.e., two-hop neighborhood). Because every node has the two-...

A double Roman dominating function on a graph G=(V,E) is f:V?{0,1,2,3} satisfying the condition that every vertex u for which f(u)=0 adjacent to at least one assigned 3 or two vertices 2, and with f(u)=1 2 3. The weight of f equals w(f)=?v?Vf(v). domination number ?dR(G) G minimum G. We obtain closed expressions generalized Petersen graphs P(5k,k). It proven ?dR(P(5k,k))=8k k?2,3mod5 8k??dR(P(5...

If G = (V, E, σ) is a finite signed graph, a function f : V → {−1, 0, 1} is a minusdominating function (MDF) of G if f(u) +summation over all vertices v∈N(u) of σ(uv)f(v) ≥ 1 for all u ∈ V . In this paper we characterize signed paths and cycles admitting an MDF.

Existing routing and broadcasting protocols for ad hoc networks assume an ideal physical layer model, where two nodes communicate if and only if they are at distance at most R, where R is the transmission radius. This article surveys our efforts to consider a more realistic physical layer model, and its impact on routing and broadcasting. We apply the log normal shadow fading model to represent...

Several distributed routing algorithms for wireless networks were described recently, based on location information of nodes available via Global Positioning System (GPS). In GEDIR algorithm (shown to have close performance to the shortest path algorithm, if successful), sender or each node currently holding the message m forwards m to one of its neighbors which is closest to destination. FACE ...

Domination theory is a well-established topic in graph theory, as well one of the most active research areas. Interest this area partly explained by its diversity applications to real-world problems, such facility location computer and social networks, monitoring communication, coding algorithm design, among others. In last two decades, functions defined on graphs have attracted attention sever...

Let k ≥ 1 be an integer, and let G be a finite and simple graph with vertex set V (G). A signed total Italian k-dominating function (STIkDF) on a graph G is a functionf : V (G) → {−1, 1, 2} satisfying the conditions that $sum_{xin N(v)}f(x)ge k$ for each vertex v ∈ V (G), where N(v) is the neighborhood of $v$, and each vertex u with f(u)=-1 is adjacent to a vertex v with f(v)=2 or to two vertic...
