This paper addresses the challenging problem of similarity search over widely distributed ultra-high dimensional data. Such an application is retrieval of the top-k most similar d...
Data transmission over wireless networks is challenging due to the occurrence of burst errors, and packet loss caused by such errors seriously limits the maximum achievable throug...
A medium access control (MAC) protocol is proposed that is suitable for non-synchronized ad-hoc networks, and in particular for the energy-constrained underwater acoustic networks...
The responsiveness of networked applications is limited by communications delays, making network distance an important parameter in optimizing the choice of communications peers. S...
