In this paper we deal with the minimum power multicasting (MPM) problem in wireless ad-hoc networks. By using an appropriate choice of the decision variables and by exploiting the topological properties of the problem, we are able to define an original formulation based on a Set Covering model....

In this paper we study a new variant of the minimum energy broadcast (MEB) problem, namely the probabilistic MEB (PMEB). The objective of the classic MEB problem is to assign transmission powers to the nodes of a wireless network is such a way that the total energy dissipated on the network is...
