With this work we aim to make a three-fold contribution. We first address the issue of supporting efficiently queries over string-attributes involving prefix, suffix, containmen...
We consider deployment problems where a mobile robotic network must optimize its configuration in a distributed way in order to minimize a steady-state cost function that depends ...
—This is by far the first paper considering joint optimization of link scheduling, routing and replication for disruption-tolerant networks (DTNs). The optimization problems for...
Publish/subscribe is emerging as an appropriate communication paradigm for large-scale, widely-distributed systems. In this paper, we describe our work on integrating active datab...
Availability of an overlay network is a necessary condition for event delivery in event based systems. The availability of the overlay links depends on the underlying physical net...
