— We consider a scenario where a wireless sensor network is formed by randomly deploying n sensors to measure some spatial function over a field, with the objective of computing...
We present an end-to-end delay guarantee theorem for a class of guaranteed-deadline (GD) servers. The theorem can be instantiated to obtain end-to-end delay bounds for a variety of...
Cycle-harvesting systems such as Condor have been developed to make desktop machines in a local area (which are often similar to clusters in hardware configuration) available as ...
This paper empirically investigates the use and behaviour of Evolution Strategies (ES) algorithms on problems such as function optimisation and the use of evolutionary artificial ...
Concurrent and distributed systems have traditionally been modelled using nondeterministic transitions over configurations. The minism provides an abstraction over scheduling, net...
