Abstract. The resource limited nature of WSNs require that protocols implemented on these networks be energy-efficient, scalable and distributed. This paper presents an analysis of...
Efficiency of synchronization mechanisms can limit the parallel performance of many shared-memory applications. In addition, the ever increasing performance gap between processor...
— The medium-access control (MAC) protocols for wireless networks proposed or implemented to date based on collision-avoidance handshakes between sender and receiver either requi...
We have developed a set of performance prediction tools which help to estimate the achievable speedups from parallelizing a sequential simulation. The tools focus on two important...
Designers of distributed embedded systems face many challenges in determining the appropriate tradeoffs to make when defining a system architecture or retargeting an existing desi...
