Abstract
Connected dominating set (CDS) has played an important role in building virtual backbone, which is used on unicast, multicast, and fault-tolerant routing in wireless sensor networks. In order to reduce traffic congestion and communication delay, a routing-cost constrained minimum CDS (ROC–CDS) has been studied extensively in the literature. In this paper, we present a PTAS for αROC–CDS where α≥5, that is, there exists a polynomial-time (1+ε)-approximation for minimum CDS under constraint that for every pair of nodes u and v, mCDS(u,v)≤m(u,v) where m(u,v) denotes the number of intermediate nodes in the shortest path between u and v, and mCDS(u,v) denotes the number of intermediate nodes of the shortest path between u and v through CDS produced by the approximation algorithm.
