This paper presents lightweight tree-based synchronization (LTS) methods for sensor networks. First, a single-hop, pair-wise synchronization scheme is analyzed. This scheme requir...
: The presentation claims that architectural design plays a crucial role in system development as a first step in a process that turns a requirements specification into a working s...
Modern embedded systems often require high degrees of instruction-level parallelism (ILP) within strict constraints on power consumption and chip cost. Unfortunately, a high-perfo...
In this paper, we consider a generic model of computational grids, seen as several clusters of homogeneous processors. In such systems, a key issue when designing efficient job al...
The coming millenium will be characterized by the availability of multiple information appliances that make ubiquitous information access an accepted fact of life. The ability to ...
