We show that CSMA is able to spontaneously synchronize transmissions in a wireless network with constant-size packets, and that this property can be used to devise efficient synch...
In this paper, we present a comprehensive analysis of real smartphone usage during a 6-month study of real user activity on the Android G1 smartphone. Our goal is to study the hig...

System design must strike a balance between energy and performance by carefully selecting the speed at which the system will run. In this work, we examine fundamental tradeoffs i...
In this paper, we analyze the performance of random load resampling and migration strategies in parallel server systems. Clients initially attach to an arbitrary server, but may s...

We propose a new approach to optimize the deployment and the sampling rates of network monitoring tools, such as Netflow, on a large IP network. It reduces to solving a stochasti...
This paper addresses the problem of determining the node locations in ad-hoc sensor networks when only connectivity information is available. In previous work, we showed that the ...
In this paper, we consider a generic model of computational grids, seen as several clusters of homogeneous processors. In such systems, a key issue when designing efficient job al...
In this paper, we study distributed channel assignment in wireless networks with applications to peer discovery in ad hoc wireless networks. We model channel assignment as a color...
