Cluster-based multi-tier systems provide a means for building scalable Internet services. Building adaptive Internet services that are able to apply appropriate system sizing and ...
Abstract—We present a motion planning algorithm that computes rough trajectories used by a contact-points planner as a guide to grow its search graph. We adapt collision-free mot...
Rate adaptation is a mechanism unspecified by the 802.11 standards, yet critical to the system performance by exploiting the multi-rate capability at the physical layer. In this ...
