— Finding the k nearest neighbors (kNN) of a query point, or a set of query points (kNN-Join) are fundamental problems in many application domains. Many previous efforts to solve...
We describe and evaluate two new, independently-applicable power reduction techniques for power management on processors that support dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS):...

Wireless sensor networks have been proposed for many location-dependent applications. In such applications, the requirement of low system cost prohibits many range-based methods f...
Abstract—Efficiently locating information in large-scale distributed systems is a challenging problem to which Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Distributed Hash Tables (DHTs) can provide a hi...
The explosive growth of location-detection devices, wireless communications, and mobile databases has resulted in the realization of location-based services as commercial products...
