We propose B-MAC, a carrier sense media access protocol for wireless sensor networks that provides a flexible interface to obtain ultra low power operation, effective collision a...
—Denial of Service (DoS) attacks aiming to exhaust the resources of a server by overwhelming it with bogus requests have become a serious threat. Especially protocols that rely o...
We present a family of methods for speeding up distributed locks by exploiting the uneven distribution of both temporal and spatial locality of access behaviour of many applicatio...
Construction activities take place in what can be called a dynamic virtual organization (VO). VOs require a secure, reliable, scalable information infrastructure that allows colla...
Predominant resources for execution of any application are computational power and memory. On one side, computational power has grown many folds faster than memory capacity. On th...
