Synchronization is widely considered as an important service in distributed systems which may simplify protocol design. Phase clock is a general synchronization tool that provides ...
Basis Pursuit (BP) finds a minimum ℓ1-norm vector z that satisfies the underdetermined linear system Mz = b, where the matrix M and vector b are given. Lately, BP has attracte...
This paper addresses a novel linear programming based approach to optimize the choice of the encoding parameters for the MPEG-4 AAC audio codec. Current techniques solve the encod...
Battery-powered wireless sensors are severely constrained by the amount of the available energy. A method for computing the energy budget per sensing task can be a valuable design...
This paper proposes to use video sensor nodes to provide an efficient intrusion detection system. We use a scheduling mechanism that takes into account the criticality of the surve...
