The coverage problem, as a fundamental problem for almost all types of applications in
wireless sensor networks (WSNs), has been studied for over a decade. Because of its …

The motivation for writing this book came from our previous research works on sensor
coverage. They received a large number of citations and this number grows rapidly each …

As a novel cyber-physical-social network paradigm, the Internet of Things (IoT) provides a
powerful tool to monitor the hazardous fields of interest. Due to the uneven random …

There has recently been increased interest in applications of topology to areas ranging from
control and sensing, to social network analysis, to high-dimensional point cloud data …

Guaranteeing sufficient sensing coverage is of prime importance in wireless sensor
networks. Unfortunately, due to many reasons such as natural disruptions, adversarial …

We develop distributed algorithms to detect and localize coverage holes in sensor networks.
We neither assume coordinate information of the nodes, neither any distances between the …

We consider the broadcasting problem in multi-radio multi-channel ad hoc networks. The
objective is to minimize the total cost of the network-wide broadcast, where the cost can be …

Persistent homology has become one of the most popular tools used in topological data
analysis for analyzing big data sets. In an effort to minimize the computational complexity of …

Collaboration social networks are traditionally modeled using graphs that capture pairwise
relationships but have ambiguity between group collaborations and multiple pairwise …

High-order networks are weighted hypergraphs collecting relationships between elements
of tuples, not necessarily pairs. Valid metric distances between high-order networks have …
