This paper is concerned with reducing communication costs when executing distributed user tasks in a sensor network. We take a service-oriented abstraction of sensor networks, whe...
Abstract — In MIMD (Multiple Instruction stream, Multiple Data stream) execution, each processor has its own state. Although these states are generally considered to be independe...
With the explosive growth of video applications over the Internet, many approaches have been proposed to stream video effectively over packet switched, best-effort networks. In ou...
Distributed and parallel computing environments are becoming cheap and commonplace. The availability of large numbers of CPU's makes it possible to process more data at highe...
We propose a dynamic programming algorithm for finding optimal transmission policies for a single packet in ratedistortion optimized media streaming. The algorithm relies on an op...
