Sensor networks are often desired to last many times longer than the active lifetime of individual sensors. This is usually achieved by putting sensors to sleep for most of their ...
A central goal of robotics and AI is to be able to deploy an agent to act autonomously in the real world over an extended period of time. It is commonly asserted that in order to ...
We introduce a general-purpose learning machine that we call the Guaranteed Error Machine, or GEM, and two learning algorithms, a real GEM algorithm and an ideal GEM algorithm. Th...
With the advent of the data grid came a novel distributed scientific computing paradigm known as service-oriented science. Among the plethora of systems included under this framew...

In this paper, we consider the problem of scheduling independent identical tasks on heterogeneous processors where communication times and processing times are different. We assum...
