In this paper we present a protocol for sensor applications that require periodic collection of raw data reports from the entire network in a timely manner. We formulate the probl...
Mass causality incidents generate a sequence of response events from the emergency services, requiring the allocation and use of resources in a timely fashion. In this paper we de...

Abstract—Context-aware applications adapt to changing computing environments or changing user circumstances/tasks. Context information that supports such adaptations is provided ...
The emerging pervasive computing is regarded as a promising solution to the systems of personal healthcare and emergency aid, which can monitor personal health status in a real-ti...
In this paper, we propose a system for contextaware battery management that warns the user when it detects that the phone battery can run out before the next charging opportunity ...
We define and evaluate a framework for estimating the energy consumption of pervasive Java-based software systems. The framework's primary objective is to enable an engineer ...
The large scale adoption of adaptive services in pervasive and mobile computing is likely to be conditioned to the availability of reliable privacy-preserving technologies. Unfort...
This paper argues for explicit consideration of data fidelity during development of context-aware systems. Increasing the amount of data captured, stored, and distributed does not ...
Large screen displays are being increasingly deployed in public areas for advertising, entertainment, and information display. Recently we have witnessed increasing interest in su...
