With the availability of low-cost sensor nodes there have been many standards developed to integrate and network these nodes to form a reliable network allowing many different typ...
Communication delay is a key source of uncertainty in distributed systems. Existing approaches to reduce this uncertainty focus on maintaining sufficient surplus bandwidth; appli...
Parallel algorithm designers need computational models that take first order system costs into account, but are also simple enough to use in practice. This paper introduces the L...
The economic impact of the growth dynamic of standards is often described from a macroeconomic point of view, employing network effect theory and models dealing with externalities...
The launch of new features for mobile phones is increasing and the product life cycle symmetrically decreasing in duration as higher levels of sophistication are reached. Therefor...
