One of the most evident characteristics of an ad hoc ubiquitous computing environment is the dynamism of connections. Due to the mobility of nodes, paths between communicating pee...
Abstract. We address the problem of designing practical, energy-efficient protocols for data collection in wireless sensor networks using predictive modeling. Prior work has sugges...
This paper considers the problem of distributed scalable coding of correlated sources that are communicated to a central unit. The general setting is typically encountered in sens...
Dryad is a general-purpose distributed execution engine for coarse-grain data-parallel applications. A Dryad application combines computational “vertices” with communication ...
