Clock synchronization is critical for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) due to the need of inter-node coordination and collaborative information processing. Although many message pa...
This paper presents lightweight tree-based synchronization (LTS) methods for sensor networks. First, a single-hop, pair-wise synchronization scheme is analyzed. This scheme requir...
This paper proposes a novel method to estimate and to reduce redundant power of synchronous circuits at RT level design. Because much redundant power is caused by redundant clocki...
This work presents a model of a distributed database system which provides the framework to study the performance of timestamp ordering concurrency control. We exhibit an analytic...
In this paper we present SECTOR, a set of mechanisms for the secure verification of the time of encounters between nodes in multi-hop wireless networks. This information can be u...
