The states of a computing system bear information and change time, while its events bear time and change information. We develop a primitive algebraic model of this duality of tim...
Time synchronization is a crucial component of a large class of sensor network applications, traditionally implemented as a standalone middleware service that provides a virtual gl...
Recently, there have been several promising techniques developed for schedulability analysis and response time analysis for multiprocessor systems based on over-approximation. Thi...
Exploiting packets’ timing information for covert communication in the Internet has been explored by several network timing channels and watermarking schemes. Several of them em...
Existing solutions for top-k queries in wireless sensor networks mainly focused on energy efficiency and little attention has been paid to the response time to answer a top-k que...
