Since only a modest improvement in battery lifetime is expected in the next few years, energy conservation is raised as a key factor of the design of mobile devices. In view of th...
Abstract. A major challenge in pervasive computing is to learn activity patterns, such as bathing and cleaning from sensor data. Typical sensor deployments generate sparse datasets...
Provision of mobile broadband wireless access, for instance via high altitude platforms (HAPs) to the passengers on a high-speed train, requires the development of efficient and r...
Admission control as a mechanism for providing QoS requires an accurate description of the requested flow as well as already admitted flows. Since 802.11 WLAN capacity is shared...
— Environmental energy is an attractive power source for low power wireless sensor networks. We present Prometheus, a system that intelligently manages energy transfer for perpet...
