Abstract—Wireless mesh network (WMN) has emerged recently as a promising technology for next-generation wireless networking. In WMN, it is important to provide an efficient hand...
The emerging paradigms of service oriented architectures and utility-based computing have the potential to greatly reduce the cost of data management. Data management service prov...
An important performance measure in wireless networks is the manner in which the network can distributively manage its limited energy and spectrum resources, while assuring certain...
In this report we address the problem of static scheduling of realtime systems that include both hard and soft tasks. We consider systems in which both hard and soft tasks are per...
Distributed allocation mechanisms rely on the agents' autonomous (and supposedly rational) behaviour: states evolve as a result of agents contracting deals and exchanging res...
