— This paper discusses a joint decentralized clustering and ranging algorithm for wireless ad-hoc sensor networks. Each sensor uses a random waiting timer and local criteria to d...
The paper assumes that business interactions between trading partners are composed of well defined conversations (tasks), such as issue a purchase order, process payment, refund m...
In this paper we present an improved scheduling technique for the synthesis of time-triggered embedded systems. Our system model captures both the flow of data and that of control...
This paper presents a solution to the (processor) group membership problem. The methodology followed in designing the algorithm is summarized by the option to optimize the perform...
Abstract-- We propose a formal definition for the timed asynchronous distributed system model. We present extensive measurements of actual message and process scheduling delays and...
