How to effectively allocate system resource to meet the Service Level Agreement (SLA) of Web servers is a challenging problem. In this paper, we propose an improved scheme for aut...
Energy constrained systems such as sensor networks can increase their usable lifetimes by extracting energy from their environment. However, environmental energy will typically no...
We consider the problem of modeling annotated data—data with multiple types where the instance of one type (such as a caption) serves as a description of the other type (such as...
Synchronization is a challenge in the multi-site 3D teleimmersion (3DTI) because it is complicated by the coexistence of highly correlated heterogenous streams from multiple sourc...
During a disaster, emergency response operations can benefit from the establishment of a wireless ad hoc network. We propose the use of autonomous robots that move inside a disas...
