System on Chip architectures have traditionally relied upon bus based interconnect for their communication needs. However, increasing bus frequencies and the load on the bus calls...
Network distance, measured as round-trip latency between hosts, is important for the performance of many Internet applications. For example, nearest server selection and proximity...
This paper describes BiSNET (Biologically-inspired architecture for Sensor NETworks), which addresses several key issues in multi-modal wireless sensor networks such as autonomy, ...
(m,k)-firm constraints have been used to schedule tasks in soft/firm real-time systems under overloaded conditions. In general, they are provided by application designers to guara...
An optimization can be specified as sequential compositions of predefined transformation primitives. For each primitive, we can define soundness conditions which guarantee that th...
