Sticky Seeding in Discrete-Time Reversible-Threshold Networks [PDF]
When nodes can repeatedly update their behavior (as in agent-based models from computational social science or repeated-game play settings) the problem of optimal network seeding becomes very complex.

A Constant Approximation for Colorful k-Center [PDF]
In this paper, we consider the colorful k-center problem, which is a generalization of the well-known k-center problem. Here, we are given red and blue points in a metric space, and a coverage requirement for each color.

The Non-Uniform k-Center Problem [PDF]
In this paper, we introduce and study the Non-Uniform k-Center problem (NUkC). Given a finite metric space $(X,d)$ and a collection of balls of radii $\{r_1\geq \cdots \ge r_k\}$, the NUkC problem is to find a placement of their centers on the metric ...

Trading Safety Versus Performance: Rapid Deployment of Robotic Swarms with Robust Performance Constraints [PDF]
In this paper we consider a stochastic deployment problem, where a robotic swarm is tasked with the objective of positioning at least one robot at each of a set of pre-assigned targets while meeting a temporal deadline. Travel times and failure rates are

Coverage, Matching, and Beyond: New Results on Budgeted Mechanism Design
We study a type of reverse (procurement) auction problems in the presence of budget constraints. The general algorithmic problem is to purchase a set of resources, which come at a cost, so as not to exceed a given budget and at the same time maximize a ...

On Budget-Feasible Mechanism Design for Symmetric Submodular Objectives
We study a class of procurement auctions with a budget constraint, where an auctioneer is interested in buying resources or services from a set of agents.

Online Budgeted Maximum Coverage [PDF]
We study the Online Budgeted Maximum Coverage (OBMC) problem. Subsets of a weighted ground set U arrive one by one, where each set has a cost. The online algorithm has to select a collection of sets, under the constraint that their cost is at most a ...

Multi‐Scale Interface Engineering of MXenes for Multifunctional Sensory Systems
MXenes, as two‐dimensional transition metal carbides and nitrides, demonstrate remarkable capabilities for multifunctional sensing applications. This review systematically examines multi‐scale interface engineering approaches that enhance sensing performance, enable diverse detection functionalities, and improve system‐level compatibility in MXene ...

Atomic Layer Deposition in Transistors and Monolithic 3D Integration
Transistors are fundamental building blocks of modern electronics. This review summarizes recent progress in atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the synthesis of two‐dimensional (2D) metal oxides and transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), with particular emphasis on their enabling role in monolithic three‐dimensional (M3D) integration for next ...

Flexible piezoresistive pressure sensors underpin wearable and soft electronics. This review links sensing physics, including contact resistance modulation, quantum tunneling and percolation, to unified materials/structure design. We highlight composite and graded architectures, interfacial/porous engineering, and microstructured 3D conductive networks
