Data gathering is a common but critical operation in many applications of wireless sensor networks. The innovative techniques that improve energy efficiency to prolong the network ...
The existing software engineering seldom considers software usability, and Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) techniques which can improve the software usability cannot guarantee de...
The recently proposed Active Queue Management (AQM) is an effective method used in Internet routers for congestion control, and to achieve a tradeoff between link utilization and ...
Future wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are projected to run multiple applications in the same network infrastructure. While such multi-application WSNs (MA-WSNs) are economically ...

This paper presents real-time scheduling techniques for reducing the response time of aperiodic tasks scheduled with real-time periodic tasks on multiprocessor systems. Two proble...
A generalized dynamic energy performance scaling (DEPS) framework is proposed for exploring applicationspecific energy-saving potential in hard real-time embedded systems. This so...

Context-awareness is a key issue in pervasive computing. Context-aware applications are prone to the context consistency problem, where applications are confronted with conflictin...
We present RT-P2P, a real-time peer-to-peer (P2P) system that allows application-level end-to-end timing requirements to be satisfied in P2P systems. P2P systems are fundamentally...
