Abstract

AbstractSuppose that in a network, a node can dominate (or cover, monitor, etc) its neighbor nodes. An interesting question asks to find such a minimum set of nodes that dominate all the other nodes. This is known as the minimum dominating set problem. A natural generalization assumes that a node can dominate nodes within a distance R ≥ 1, called the minimum distance dominating set problem. On the other hand, if the distance between any two nodes in the dominating set must be at least z ≥ 1, then the problem is known as the minimum independent dominating set problem. This paper considers to find a minimum distance-R independence-z dominating set for arbitrary R and z, which has applications in facility location, internet monitoring and others. We show a practical approach. Empirical studies show that usually it is very fast and quite accurate, thus suitable for Big Data analysis. Generalization to directed graphs, edge lengths, multi-dominating are also discussed.KeywordsWireless Sensor NetworkGreedy AlgorithmRandom GraphPriority QueueChordal GraphThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
