Water is our most precious and most rapidly declining natural resource. We explore pervasive technology as an approach for promoting water conservation in public and private space...
We analyze the problem of packing squares in an online fashion: Given an semi-infinite strip of width 1 and an unknown sequence of squares with side lengths in [0, 1] that arrive...
We propose a vector representation (called a 3D signature) for 3D face shape in biometrics applications. Elements of the vector correspond to fixed surface points in a face-centere...
Temporal locality in workloads creates conditions in which a server, in order to remain available, should quickly process bursts of requests with large service requirements. In th...
—Most existing wireless ad hoc routing protocols rely upon the use of backward learning technique with explicit control messages to route packets. In this paper we propose a set ...
