This paper discusses several distributed poweraware routing protocols in wireless ad-hoc networks (especially sensor networks). We seek to optimize the lifetime of the network. We...
— The performance of two Bluetooth piconets linked through a bridge device is analyzed using the tools of queueing theory. We analyze both the Master/Slave (MS) and Slave/Slave (...
From the 1990s on, one of the most important challenges facing computer science researchers has been the design and construction of software tools to exploit Internet computing. A...
In a system proposed by Plaxton, Rajaraman and Richa (PRR), the expected cost of accessing a replicated object was proved to be asymptotically optimal for a static set of nodes an...
Abstract— Today’s complex appliances are plagued by difficultto-use interfaces. In many cases, consumers use only a few of the many features on their appliances because the mor...
