Approximating sensor network queries using in-network summaries
In this work we present new in-network techniques for communication efficient approximate query processing in wireless sensornets. We use a model-based approach that constructs a...

Approximation and Hardness Results for Label Cut and Related Problems
We investigate a natural combinatorial optimization problem called the Label Cut problem. Given an input graph G with a source s and a sink t, the edges of G are classified into ...

An approximation algorithm for the least overlapping p-Frame problem with non-partial coverage for networked robotic cameras
Abstract— We report our algorithmic development of the pframe problem that addresses the need of coordinating a set of p networked robotic pan-tilt-zoom cameras for n, (n > p)...

Approximate Retrieval of XML Data with ApproXPath
Several XML query languages have been proposed that use XPath expressions to locate data. But XPath expressions might miss some data because of irregularities in the data and sche...

Approximate isocontours and spatial summaries for sensor networks
We consider the problem of approximating a family of isocontours in a sensor field with a topologically-equivalent family of simple polygons. Our algorithm is simple and distribu...
