We address how to write programs for distributed computing systems in which the network topology can change dynamically. Examples of such systems, which we call ensembles, include ...

— We introduce galsC, a language designed for programming event-driven embedded systems such as sensor networks. galsC implements the TinyGALS programming model. At the local lev...
Ad-hoc networks of mobile devices such as smart phones and PDAs represent a new and exciting distributed system architecture. Building distributed applications on such an architec...

— In this paper, we address the network maintenance problem, in which we aim to maximize the lifetime of a sensor network by adding a set of relays to it. The network lifetime is...
Embedded wireless networks have largely focused on openloop sensing and monitoring. To address actuation in closedloop wireless control systems there is a strong need to re-think ...
