— In this paper a new approach to optimize nuclear power plant designs based on global risk reduction are described. In design the focus is on as components quality as redundancy...
—In this paper, we investigate the maximization of the coverage time for a clustered wireless sensor network (WSN) by optimal balancing of power consumption among cluster heads (...
We consider distributed opportunistic scheduling (DOS) in wireless ad-hoc networks, where many links contend for the same channel using random access. In such networks, distribute...
Many aspects for runtime monitoring are history-based: they contain pieces of advice that execute conditionally, based on the observed execution history. History-based aspects are...
Research on query optimization has focused almost exclusively on reducing query execution time, while important qualities such as consistency and predictability have largely been ...
