Abstract-- We consider the problem of estimating the geographic locations of nodes in a wireless sensor network where most sensors are without an effective self-positioning functio...
Abstract--Link adaptation to dynamically select the data transmission rate at a given time has been recognized as an effective way to improve the goodput performance of the IEEE 80...
The variety of features available to represent multimedia data constitutes a rich pool of information. However, the plethora of data poses a challenge in terms of feature selectio...
Abstract-A mechanism for the estimation of the available bandwidth between two end-points of a best-effort network is presented. The estimation is obtained by a simple statistical ...
uire an abstraction layer, without paying the performance penalty paid by microkernels. By allowing for kernel modules, hardware-specific code can often be confined to a module, ke...
