The architecture of two-tiered sensor networks, where storage nodes serve as an intermediate tier between sensors and a sink for storing data and processing queries, has been widel...
We evaluate the impact of a gigabit network on the implementation of a distributed chemical process optimization application. The optimization problem is formulated as a stochasti...
Sensor networks are becoming an important part of the IT landscape. Existing systems, however, are limited in two fundamental ways: lack of data independence, and poor integration...
Location-based services are increasingly popular and it is a key challenge to efficiently support query processing. We present a novel design to process large numbers of location...
A multiple objective programming approach for the analytic network process (ANP) is proposed to obtain all local priorities for crisp or interval judgments at one time, even in an...
