Abstract. Typical sensor nodes are composed of cheap hardware because they have to be affordable in great numbers. This means that memory and communication bandwidth are small, CPU...
One vision of an opportunistic sensor network (OSN) uses sensor access points (SAPs) to assign mobile sensors with sensing tasks submitted by applications that could be running any...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks are distributed systems in which nodes of equal roles and capabilities exchange information and services directly with each other. In recent years, the...
This paper presents a parallel algorithm for recursive query processing and shows how it can be efficiently implemented in a local computer network. The algorithm relies on an int...
Multicast protocols for MANET typically construct a tree or mesh structure for multicast message distribution. Typical implementations impose scalability and efficiency limitation...
