Exact client localization has been an obstacle in the use of WLAN in factories and offices for providing location based service. With respect to a novel localization scheme in WLA...
In South-East Asia, huge swarms of fireflies synchronously emit light flashes to attract mating partners. The underlying principle can be used to implement a robust and scalable d...
Abstract—We consider two natural extensions of the communication complexity model that are inspired by distributed computing. In both models, two parties are equipped with synchr...
