We propose a mechanism for object access control which is based on the UML. Specifically, we propose use of ownership and immutability constraints on UML associations and verifica...
To achieve required sensing coverage for a very long period of time is an important and challenging problem in sensor network design. Recently, Tong et al. have proposed a node rep...
—Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO) is increasingly being applied to optimisation of multi-objective problems in engineering design and scientific investigation. This paper inves...
In this paper we present a “lightweight” visual formalism that can be used to examine the state space complexity of an interface. The method can form a basis for designing, te...
—We address the issue of power-controlled shared channel access in future wireless networks supporting packetized data traffic, beyond the voice-oriented continuous traffic prima...
