This paper presents Random Asynchronous Wakeup (RAW), a power saving technique for sensor networks that reduces energy consumption without significantly affecting the latency or c...
The wireless connectivity, essential for pervasive computing, has ephemeral character and can be used for creating ad hoc networks, sensor networks, connection with RFID tags etc....
Combinatorial auctions (CAs) are important mechanisms for allocating interrelated items. Unfortunately, winner determination is NP-complete unless there is special structure. We s...
