Abstract. Context-aware systems represent extremely complex and heterogeneous distributed systems, composed of sensors, actuators, application components, and a variety of context ...
Traditionally, dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) techniques have focused on minimizing the processorenergy consumption as opposed to the entire system energy consumption. The slowdown...
Much experience has been gained with the protocols and mechanisms needed for discovery and allocation of remote computational resources. However, the preparation of a remote compu...
Theoretical modeling of chemical and biological processes is a key to understand nature and to predict experiments. Unfortunately, this is very data and computation extensive. Howe...
