Abstract

Motivated by a random coverage problem from a real-life case study, this paper discusses and compares several number-theoretic methods including the ELP-net, NT-net, and others in statistical simulations. The methods and related conclusions studied in this paper can be extended into more general cases in statistical simulations.
