In this article, we study a general version of the problem that extends the neighborhood relationship: two vertices are called neighbors of each other if there exists a path through no more than k edges between them. The problem called “minimum k-dominating set problem” (MkDSP) becomes the classical dominating set problem if k is 1 and has important applications in monitoring large-scale social networks. We propose an efficient heuristic algorithm that can handle real-world instances with up to 17 million vertices and 33 million edges. This is the first time such large graphs are solved for the minimum k-dominating set problem publisher: Springer date: 2020 type: Article type: PeerReviewed format: text/html language: en identifier: https://eprints.uet.vnu.edu.vn/eprints/id/eprint/4060/1/10.1186/s40649-020-00078-5 identifier: Nguyen, Minh Hai and Ha, Minh Hoang and Nguyen N, Diep and Tran, The Trung (2020) Solving the k-dominating set problem on very large-scale networks.
