A major concern for large-scale deployment of location-based services (LBSs) is the potential abuse of their client location data, which may imply sensitive personal information. ...
We consider a system with two service classes with heterogeneous traffic characteristics and Quality-of-Service requirements. The available bandwidth is shared between the two tra...
In this paper, we consider a non-saturated IEEE 802.11 based wireless network. We use a three-way fixed point to model the node behavior with Bernoulli packet arrivals and determi...
Clock synchronization is a crucial basic service in typical sensor networks, since the observations of distributed sensors more often than not need to be ordered ("a happened...
Recently, the problem of efficiently supporting advanced query operators, such as nearest neighbor or range queries, over multidimensional data in widely distributed environments...
