In distributed systems, transcoding techniques have been used to customize multimedia objects, utilizing trade-offs between the quality and sizes of these objects to provide diffe...
This paper considers a sensor network where relay nodes cooperate in order to minimize the total energy consumption for the unicast transmission of a message from a single source ...

Despite impressive advances in file system throughput resulting from technologies such as high-bandwidth networks and disk arrays, file system latency has not improved and in many...
Work on early tiny database systems, like TinyDB [17] and Cougar [23] has shown that a declarative approach can provide a powerful and easy to use interface for collecting data fr...
