The set covering problem (SCP) is one of representative combinatorial optimization problems, which is defined as the problem of covering the m-rows by a subset of the n-columns at minimal cost. This paper proposes a method utilizing Integer Programming-based Local Search (IPbLS) to solve the set covering problem. IPbLS is a kind of local search technique in which the current solution is improved by searching neighborhood solutions. Integer programming is used to generate neighborhood solution in IPbLS. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm has been tested on OR-Library test instances. The experimental results showed that IPbLS could search for the best known solutions in all the test instances. Especially, I confirmed that IPbLS could search for better solutions than the best known solutions in four test instances.

We propose a method using the genetic algorithm to solve the maximum set cover problem. It is needed for scheduling the power of sensor nodes in extending the lifetime of the wireless sensor network with variable sensing range. The existing Greedy Heuristic method calculates the power scheduling of sensor nodes repeatedly in the process of operation, and so the communication traffic of sensor nodes is increased. The proposed method reduces the amount of communication traffic of sensor nodes, and so the energies of nodes are saved, and the lifetime of network can be extended. The effectiveness of this method was verified through computer simulation, and considering the energy losses of communication operations about 10% in the network lifetime is improved.

CTC(Connected Target Coverage)문제는 주어진 전체 타겟을 관측하고 관측한 데이터를 싱크노드까지 전송하는데 관여하는 센서집합의 개수를 최대화하여 네트워크 수명을 최대화하는 문제이다. 본 논문은 센서가 타겟을 관측할 확률이 타겟과의 거리에 영향을 받는다고 가정하는 확률 커버리지 모델을 기반으로 CTC문제에 접근한다. CTC문제를 해결하기 위해 휴리스틱 알고리즘인 CWGC-PM 알고리즘을 제안하고 시뮬레이션을 통해 알고리즘이 CTC문제를 해결하기에 적합함을 보인다.
