—“Autonomic systems” merge advancements in the field of multi-agent software design, dynamic analysis, and decentralized control in order to assist designers in constructing...
To achieve more accurate global time synchronization, this paper argues for decoupling the clock distribution network from the routing tree in a multihop wireless network. We find...

We study, from the competitive analysis perspective, the trade off between communication cost and delay cost (or simply the sendor-wait dilemma) on a hierarchy (rooted tree). The p...
Nearest neighbor (NN) queries have been extended from Euclidean spaces to road networks. Existing approaches are either based on Dijkstra-like network expansion or NN/distance prec...
It is widely conjectured that the excellent ROC performance of biological vision systems is due in large part to the exploitation of context at each of many levels in a part/whole...
