Abstract. In wireless data broadcast systems, popular information is repetitively disseminated through possibly multiple communication channels to mobile clients using various type...
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) pose challenges not present in classical distributed systems: resource limitations, high failure rates, and ad hoc deployment. The lossy nature of w...
Flexible and dynamic environments are characterized by high independence from connection participants, low control over available services and high tolerance to communication fail...
Structured overlay networks form a major class of peerto-peer systems, which are touted for their abilities to scale, tolerate failures, and self-manage. Any long-lived Internet-s...
Abstract. We propose and discuss foundations for programmable overlay networks and overlay computing systems. Such overlays are built over a large number of distributed computation...
