We introduce a formalism for optimal sensor parameter selection for iterative state estimation in static systems. Our optimality criterion is the reduction of uncertainty in the st...
As businesses continue to grow their World Wide Web presence, it is becoming increasingly vital for them to have quantitative measures of the client perceived response times of th...
We describe a new, non-FCFS policy to schedule parallel jobs on systems that may be part of a computational grid. Our algorithm continuously monitors the system (i.e., the intensi...
This paper presents a biologically inspired approach to two basic problems in modular self-reconfigurable robots: adaptive communication in self-reconfigurable and dynamic networks...
Energy-efficiency has been an important system issue in hardware and software designs to extend operation duration or cut power bills. This research explores systems with probabil...
