In this paper we propose a fundamental approach to perform the class of Nearest Neighbor (NN) queries, the core class of queries used in many of the location-based services, withou...
The sensing systems that monitor physical environments rely on communication infrastructures (wired or wireless) to collect data from the sensors embedded in the environment. Howe...
Use of anycast service can considerably simplify many communication applications. Two approaches can be used for routing anycast packets. Single-path routing always uses the same ...
Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) provide rapidly deployable and self-configuring network capacity required in many critical applications, e.g., battlefields, disaster relief and ...
Current research in distributed systems focuses on object group models which are designed for scalable systems and provide accessible objects to the entire group. However, dynamic...
