As distributed real-time applications gain in popularity, a key challenge is to allocate resources so that diverse realtime requirements (including non-real-time applications), di...
— In this paper, we propose a novel duty cycling algorithm for large-scale dense wireless sensor networks. The proposed algorithm is based on a social behavior of nodes in the se...
XML-based data dissemination networks are rapidly gaining momentum. In these networks XML content is routed from data producers to data consumers throughout an overlay network of ...
Large-scale distributed systems provide an attractive scalable infrastructure for network applications. However, the loosely-coupled nature of this environment can make data acces...
We propose the design of Plug, an application to find and keep contacts with friends within many inter-connected 3D virtual worlds. Users use an instant messenger (IM)-like inter...
