— This paper addresses the problem of classifying places in the environment of a mobile robot into semantic categories. We believe that semantic information about the type of pla...
Data dissemination in sensor networks requires four components: resource discovery, route establishment, packet forwarding, and route maintenance. Resource discovery can be the mos...
Commodity computer clusters are often composed of hundreds of computing nodes. These generally off-the-shelf systems are not designed for high reliability. Node failures therefore...
— We consider a dense wireless sensor network where the radio transceivers of the sensor nodes are heavily duty-cycled in order to conserve energy. The chief purpose of the senso...
Heterogeneous computing systems composed of interconnected machines with varied computational capabilities often operate in environments where there may be sudden machine failures...
