To save energy, many power management policies rely on issuing mode-change commands to the components of the system. Efforts to date have focused on how these policies interact wi...
Biologically inspired designs can improve the design of artificial agents. In this paper we explain and explore the role of directional light sensors from an Evolutionary Robotic...
We consider the problem of selecting a subset of p out of n sensors for the purpose of event detection, in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Occurrence or not of the event of intere...
This paper addresses the problem of extending the lifetime of a batterypowered mobile host in a client-server wireless network by using task migration and remote processing. This ...
Abstract. This paper presents a methodology for the design of a reconfigurable computing system applied to a complex problem in molecular Biology: the protein folding problem. An e...
