— It is well-understood that increasing redundancy in a system generally improves the availability and dependability of the system. In server clusters, one important form of redu...
In battery powered systems such as wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is one of the most important system design goals. In this paper, energy efficiency is examined fro...
Recent research results show that a wireless ad hoc network can exploit controlled node mobility to reduce communication energy consumption. Node movement, however, may consume a ...
Mobile devices increasingly offer functionality beyond the one provided by traditional resources – processor, memory and applications. This includes, for example, integrated mul...
: When dealing with remote systems, it is desirable that these systems are capable of operation within acceptable levels with minimal control and maintenance. In terms or transmiss...
