In this paper, we present a real-time communication protocol for sensor networks, called SPEED. The protocol provides three types of real-time communication services, namely, real...

Dynamic module replacement — the ability to hot swap a component’s implementation at runtime — is fundamental to supporting evolutionary change in long-lived and highlyavail...
Lookup services are used in many Internet applications to translate a key (e.g., a file name) into an associated set of entries (e.g., the location of file copies). The key look...
An important characteristic of distributed grids is that they allow geographically separated multicomputers to be tied together in a transparent virtual environment to solve large...
Clustering is an important characteristic of most sensor applications. In this paper we define COSMOS, the Cluster-based, heterOgeneouS MOdel for Sensor networks. The model assum...
