The Mobile Agent (MA) paradigm advocates the migration of agent code to achieve computational goals. MAs require an executable environment on hosts where mobile code can be execut...
This research is motivated by the needs of robust streaming of vector graphics contents over the Internet, wireless and other lossy networks. We present a multiple description cod...
In this paper, we study the optimal way of distributing sensors in a random field to minimize the estimation distortion. We show that this problem is equivalent to certain proble...
Obtaining performance data for application or system software is typically di cult, especially when the source code is not available. While popular techniques such as event trappi...
