When a manufacturer places repeated orders with a supplier to meet changing production requirements, he faces the challenge of finding the right balance between holding costs and ...
In many real-life situations, we know the probability distribution of two random variables x1 and x2, but we have no information about the correlation between x1 and x2; what are ...
The k-th power of a graph G is the graph whose vertex set is V (G)k , where two distinct ktuples are adjacent iff they are equal or adjacent in G in each coordinate. The Shannon ...
Energy is the most crucial but scarce resource in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). A wealth of MAC protocols are proposed only to prolong the network lifetime for energy-efficienc...
In this paper, we focus on the challenge of demand-scalable multicast routing in wireless sensor networks. Due to the ad-hoc nature of the placement of the sensor nodes as well as...
