In a container transport system, wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can be used for monitoring products while they are being transported. To be commercially interesting, these WSNs m...
We propose a joint optimization of Network Coding and MIMO techniques to improve the downlink channel throughput of a wireless base station. Specifically, we consider a MIMO base...
Autonomic Computing was introduced to reduce the complexity of managing computing systems; however, the heterogeneous nature existing in most computing systems introduces some dif...
Power consumption within the memory hierarchy grows in importance as on-chip data caches occupy increasingly greater die area. Among dynamic power conservation schemes, horizontal...
