We present the design, implementation, and evaluation of PROMISE, a novel peer-to-peer media streaming system encompassing the key functions of peer lookup, peer-based aggregated ...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) consist of a large collection of small nodes providing collaborative and distributed sensing ability in unpredictable environments. Given their unat...
Energy efficient operations are essential to increase the lifetime of wireless sensor network. A clustering-based protocol is one approach that reduces energy by a data aggregation...
We study stochastic models to mitigate the risk of poor Quality-of-Service (QoS) in computational markets. Consumers who purchase services expect both price and performance guaran...
There has been considerable work on determining a suitable method to accomplish a satisfactory ordering of a group of objects, when there are multiple evaluation criteria. A weigh...
