The objective of query optimizers is to select a good execution plan for a given query. In a distributed system, it is crucial for a query optimizer to have effective remote cost e...
We propose a distributed algorithm to construct a balanced communication tree that serves in gathering data from the network nodes to a sink. Our algorithm constructs a near-optim...
The widespread distribution and availability of smallscale sensors, actuators, and embedded processors is transforming the physical world into a computing platform. One such examp...
