Many important combinatorial optimization problems can be expressed as constraint satisfaction problems with soft constraints. When problems are too difficult to be solved exactly,...
Distributed systems are becoming a popular way of implementing many embedded computing applications, automotive control being a common and important example. Such embedded systems...
Abstract. Delaying the synchronization of actions may reveal some hidden behavior that would not happen if the synchronization met the specified deadlines. This precise phenomenon...
A scene-adaptive rate control algorithm with an enhanced frame skipping is proposed for low bit rate video coding. Most existing rate control algorithms for low bit rate video focu...
Abstract—Rapid and unpredictable topology changes and resource constraints make delivering packets in a MANET (Mobile Ad hoc Network) a challenging task. Routing information has ...
