Multi-core processors have become an integral part of mainstream high performance computer systems. In parallel, exponentially increasing power density and packaging costs have ne...
A radio frequency identifier (RFID) system consists of inexpensive, uniquely identifiable tags that are mounted on physical objects, and readers that track these tags (and hence...
Channel-aware scheduling and link adaptation (LA) methods are widely considered to be crucial for realizing high data rates in wireless networks. Multi-carrier systems that spread...
