In this paper, one of the most important parameters in performance evaluation and protocol design of wireless networks, Link Excess Life (LEL), is investigated. An analytical mode...
Software barriers have been designed and evaluated for barrier synchronization in large-scale shared-memory multiprocessors, under the assumption that all processorsreach the sync...
—In this paper, we present the design and analysis of a portable position and orientation (pose) estimation aid for the visually impaired. Our prototype navigation aid consists o...
Abstract-- Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) require energyef cient protocols to improve the network lifetime. In this work, we adopt a cross-layer strategy that considers routing an...
— Incentive protocols play a crucial role to encourage cooperation among nodes in networking applications. The aim of this paper is to provide a general analytical framework to a...
