Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
The last decade has seen a phenomenal increase in the use of electronic components in automotive systems, resulting in the replacement of purely mechanical or hydraulic-implementa...
We present a randomized coloring algorithm for the unstructured radio network model, a model comprising autonomous nodes, asynchronous wake-up, no collision detection and an unkno...
We present a novel distributed algorithm for the maximal independent set (MIS) problem.1 On bounded-independence graphs (BIG) our deterministic algorithm finishes in O(log n) time,...
Global Positioning System (GPS) Technology allows precise determination of location, velocity, direction, and time. The price of GPS receivers is falling rapidly and the applicatio...
