This paper derives a near optimal distributed Kalman filter to estimate a large-scale random field monitored by a network of N sensors. The field is described by a sparsely con...
Recently, several directional MAC protocols using smart antennas or directional antennas have been proposed for wireless ad hoc networks including our proposed MAC protocol called...
Abstract. Web Services is an XML-based technology that has attracted significant attention for building distributed Internet services. There have also been significant efforts tryi...
Pervasive computing environments have traditionally used distributed sensors to gather user context. EPC (Electronic Product Code) information extracted from RFID tags could addit...
—In distributed sensor networks, computational and energy resources are in general limited. Therefore, an intelligent selection of sensors for measurements is of great importance...
