Abstract

The problem of efficiently monitoring the network flow is regarded as the one to find out the minimum
weighted weak vertex cover set for a given graph G. We show that a weak vertex cover set approximating a minimum one within
2-2/nu(G) can be efficiently found in undirected graphs, and improve the previous work from approximation ratio within ln(d) + 1, where
d is the maximum degree of the vertex in graph G.
