, 1972
"... This paper presents new algorithms for the maximum flow problem, the Hitchcock transportation problem, and the general minimum-cost flow problem. Upper bounds on ... the numbers of steps in these algorithms are derived, and are shown to compale favorably with upper bounds on the numbers of steps req ..."

Minimum-cost network hardening using attack graphs
, 2006
"... In defending one’s network against cyber attack, certain vulnerabilities may seem acceptable risks when considered in isolation. But an intruder can often infiltrate a seemingly well-guarded network through a multi-step intrusion, in which each step prepares for the next. Attack graphs can reveal th ..."

The key improvements over the preliminary version of this paper include a formal framework of the minimum network hardening problem, and an improved one
A general approximation technique for constrained forest problems
- SIAM J. COMPUT.
, 1995
"... We present a general approximation technique for a large class of graph problems. Our technique mostly applies to problems of covering, at minimum cost, the vertices of a graph with trees, cycles, or paths satisfying certain requirements. In particular, many basic combinatorial optimization proble ..."

problems fit in this framework, including the shortest path, minimum-cost spanning tree, minimum-weight perfect matching, traveling salesman, and Steiner tree problems. Our technique produces approximation algorithms that run in O(n log n) time and come within a factor of 2 of optimal for most
An Incremental Algorithm for a Generalization of the Shortest-Path Problem
, 1992
"... The grammar problem, a generalization of the single-source shortest-path problem introduced by Knuth, is to compute the minimum-cost derivation of a terminal string from each non-terminal of a given context-free grammar, with the cost of a derivation being suitably defined. This problem also subsume ..."

Distributed Maintenance of Minimum-cost Path Information in Wireless Sensor Networks
"... The quality of the communication links in a Wireless Sensor Network often shows significant asymmetry and variation over time, due to, for example, heterogeneous settings of the transmission power, moving nodes or changing external interference. This makes it difficult for nodes to accurately mainta ..."

. Using controlled n-hop forwarding, to deal with asymmetric links, every node disseminates minimum-cost path and connectivity information allowing every connected node in the network to iteratively derive minimum-cost path information. This controlled n-hop forwarding is repeated to avoid stale
Efficient Minimum-cost Bandwidth-constrained Routing in Wireless Sensor Networks +
"... Abstract — A critical issue in the design of routing protocols for wireless sensor networks is the efficient utilization of resources such as scarce bandwidth and limited energy supply. Many routing schemes proposed in the literature try to minimize the energy consumed in routing or maximize the lif ..."

The protocol is derived from a combinatorial optimization problem, known as the minimum-cost flow problem in the operations research literature. Because we use polynomialtime minimum-cost
Implicit computation of minimum-cost feedback-vertex sets for partial scan and other applications

"... The contribution of this paper is an implicit method for computing the minimum cost feedback vertex set for a graph. For an arbitrary graph, we efficiently derive a Boolean function whose satisfying assignments directly correspond to feedback vertex sets of the graph. Importantly, cycles in the grap ..."

Multi-wafer virtual probe: Minimum-cost variation characterization by exploring wafer-to-wafer correlation
- in Proc. Int. Conf. Comput.-Aided Des., 2010
"... In this paper, we propose a new technique, referred to as Multi-Wafer Virtual Probe (MVP) to efficiently model wafer-level spatial variations for nanoscale integrated circuits. Towards this goal, a novel Bayesian inference is derived to extract a shared model template to explore the wafer-to-wafer c ..."

Minimum-Cost QoS-Constrained Deployment and Routing Policies for Wireless Relay Networks
"... With the continued evolution of wireless communication technology, relaying is one of the features proposed for the 4G LTE Advanced (LTE-A) system. The aim of relaying is to enhance both coverage and capacity. The idea of relays is not new, but relaying is being considered to ensure that the optimu ..."

many relays should be deployed in the planning stages to minimize the development cost. In the planning stages, we not only derive a multicast tree routing algorithm to both determine and fulfill the QoS requirements to enhance throughput, but we also utilize the Lagrangian relaxation (LR) method
