Abstract—In this paper, we focus on applications with quantitative QoS (Quality of Service) requirements in their end-toend response time. Two types of quantitative QoS garantees...
— Wireless sensor networks have attracted significant interest for various scientific, military, and e-health applications. Recently a new class of sensor networks “sensor/ac...
Existing solutions for top-k queries in wireless sensor networks mainly focused on energy efficiency and little attention has been paid to the response time to answer a top-k que...
Declustering techniques reduce query response times through parallel I/O by distributing data among multiple devices. Recently, replication based approaches were proposed to furth...
The reactivity of Networked Automation Systems (NAS) has direct influence on safety and quality aspects. It can be determined by a response time analysis, which itself can be calc...
Current service-level agreements (SLAs) offered by cloud providers make guarantees about quality attributes such as availability. However, although one of the most important quali...
