This paper investigates two fundamental characteristics of a wireless multihop network: its minimum node degree and its k?connectivity. Both topology attributes depend on the spat...
Clock synchronization is a crucial basic service in typical sensor networks, since the observations of distributed sensors more often than not need to be ordered ("a happened...
We consider a set of views stating possibly conflicting facts. Negative facts in the views may come, e.g., from functional dependencies in the underlying database schema. We want ...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) storage is a promising technology to provide users with cheap and online persistence. However, due the instability of these infrastructures, P2P storage systems...
The complexity of physical and engineering systems, both in terms of the governing physical phenomena and the number of subprocesses involved, is mirrored in ever more complex mat...
