This paper is about Reinforcement Learning (RL) applied to online parameter tuning in Stochastic Local Search (SLS) methods. In particular a novel application of RL is considered i...
In this paper we consider the problem of maximising utility in linked market-driven distributed and Grid systems. In such systems, users submit jobs through brokers who can virtua...
—Carrier sensing is a medium access method widely adopted in wireless communication to protect data transfers from interference. For example, Distributed Coordination Function (D...
We present an efficient JPEG2000-based image authentication scheme, which is robust to JPEG compression and other allowed signal processing operations. Positive wavelet-based wate...
In this work we present a calibration-free system for locating wireless local area network devices, based on the radio frequency characteristics of such networks. Calibration proc...
