Abstract--Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET) and Peer-ToPeer (P2P) systems are emerging technologies sharing a common underlying decentralized networking paradigm. However, the related...
Abstract Sensor devices produce data that are unreliable, low-level, and seldom able to be used directly by applications. In this paper, we propose Metaphysical Data Independence (...

In mobile ad hoc networks, nodes interact peer-to-peer. They self-organize, share workloads and provide services that they also use. There are middleware platforms, designed for t...
Energy-aware algorithms have proven to be a crucial part of sensor network applications, especially if they are required to operate for extended periods of time. Among these, effic...
Subsumption architectures are a well-known model for behaviour-based robotic control. The overall behaviour is achieved by defining a hierarchy of increasingly sophisticated behav...
