This paper is concerned with reducing communication costs when executing distributed user tasks in a sensor network. We take a service-oriented abstraction of sensor networks, whe...
— In many devices, wireless network interfaces consume upwards of 30% of scarce portable system energy. Extending the system lifetime by minimizing communication power consumptio...
This paper deals with the on-line allocation of shared data objects to the local memory modules of the nodes in a network. We assume that the data is organized in indivisible objec...
Existing and upcoming distributed multimedia applications require highly diverse services to satisfy their communication needs. Service integrated communication systems should be c...
Existing languages provide good support for typeful programming of standalone programs. In a distributed system, however, there may be interaction between multiple instances of ma...
