The study of synchronization has received much attention in a variety of applications, ranging from coordinating sensors in wireless networks to models of fireflies flashing in...
With multicore architectures being introduced to the market, the research community is revisiting problems to evaluate them under the new preconditions set by those new systems. A...
Sensor networks are deployed to monitor the physical environment in public and vulnerable locations. It is not economically viable to house sensors in tamper-resilient enclosures ...
Embedded system optimization typically considers objectives such as cost, timing, buffer sizes and power consumption. Robustness criteria, i.e. sensitivity of the system to variat...
Among different wireless LAN technologies 802.11a has recently become popular due to its high throughput, large system capacity, and relatively long range. In this paper, we prop...
