A Note on Minimum-Sum Coverage by Aligned Disks
[article]
2012
arXiv
pre-print
In this paper, we consider a facility location problem to find a minimum-sum coverage of n points by disks centered at a fixed line. ...
The goal is to find a set of disks under Lp metric such that the disks are centered on the x-axis, their union covers n points, and the sum of the cost of the disks is minimized. ...
When α = 1, the smallest disk containing all points is the optimal coverage. However, we can easily show for α > 1 that infinitely many disks always guarantee the minimum cost coverage for any input. ...

MSPEC is a graph generalization of a barrier coverage problem in a wireless sensor network: given a set of unit disks with centers in a rectangle, what is the minimum total amount by which we must shrink ...
This is a more sophisticated measure of barrier coverage than the minimum number of disks whose removal breaks the barrier. We develop a fully polynomial time approximation scheme (FPTAS) for MSPEC. ...
