We introduce a problem directly inspired by its application to DWDM (dense wavelength division multiplexing) network design. We are given a set of demands to be carried over a netw...
of abstraction and coarse granularity and distributed communication control. Focusing on using probabilistic metrics such as average values or variance to quantify design objective...
Sensornet lifespan and utility is limited by the energy resources of individual motes. Network designers seek to maximise energy efficiency while maintaining acceptable Quality o...
The main theme of this paper is to develop a novel eigenvalue optimization framework for learning a Mahalanobis metric. Within this context, we introduce a novel metric learning a...
—Backoff misbehavior, in which a wireless node deliberately manipulates its backoff time, can induce significant network problems, such as severe unfairness and denial-of-servic...
