Energy constrained systems such as sensor networks can increase their usable lifetimes by extracting energy from their environment. However, environmental energy will typically no...
Workflow systems are an emerging technology which have become increasingly important in the drive for business to provide better services and increase productivity. Intuitively, w...
In a Grid Computing environment, there are various important issues, including information security, resource management, routing, fault tolerance, and so on. Among these issues, ...
In this paper we propose a distributed approach to construct vicinity resource maps at each node in a delaytolerant network. The scheme uses recent encounters to estimate the avail...
In order to adapt to time-varying wireless channels, various channel-adaptive schemes have been proposed to exploit inherent spatial diversity in mobile/wireless ad hoc networks w...
