IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) employs the distributed coordination function (DCF) as the fundamental medium access function. DCF operates with binary exponential backoff...
Abstract-We study the problem of achieving global behavior in a group of distributed robots using only local sensing and minimal communication, in the context of formations. The go...
In past massively parallel processing systems, such as the TMC CM-5 and the CRI T3E, the scheduling problem consisted of allocating a single type of resource among the waiting job...
We experiment with sequential and parallel versions of the Karatsuba multiplication algorithm implemented under the paclib computer algebra system on a Sequent Symmetry shared-memo...
—Designing efficient scheduling algorithms is an important problem in a general class of networks with resourcesharing constraints, such as wireless networks and stochastic proc...
