The problem of statically assigning nonpartitioned files in a parallel I/O system has been extensively investigated. A basic workload characteristic assumption of existing solutio...
—By combining an unstructured protocol with a DHT-based global index, hybrid peer-to-peer (P2P) improves search efficiency in terms of query recall and response time. The major c...
— Hierarchical state machines have proven to be a powerful tool for controlling autonomous robots due to their flexibility and modularity. For most real robot implementations, h...
We examine eleven large open source software systems and present empirical evidence for the existence of fractal structures in software evolution. In our study, fractal structures...
— Two fundamental functions of the sensor nodes in a wireless sensor network are to sense its environment and to transmit sensed information to a basestation. One approach to pro...
