For many sensor network applications such as military surveillance, it is necessary to provide full sensing coverage to a security-sensitive area while at the same time minimizing...
NBTI is one of the most important silicon reliability problems facing processor designers today. The impact of NBTI can be mitigated at both the circuit and microarchitecture leve...
We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
Abstract— We study the problem of maximizing the aggregated revenue in sensor networks with deadline constraints. Our model is that of a sensor network that is arranged in the fo...
We study a wireless network under the 802.11 random access protocol, supporting multiple physical layer rates. Based on models for the effective packet rates achieved at the MAC ...
