Abstract--Real-time systems are subject to temporal constraints and require a schedulability analysis to ensure that task execution finishes within lower and upper specified bounds...
When controlling dynamic systems, such as mobile robots in uncertain environments, there is a trade off between risk and reward. For example, a race car can turn a corner faster b...
We investigate the optimal performance of dense sensor networks by studying the joint source-channel coding problem. The overall goal of the sensor network is to take measurements...
Abstract-Similarity searching often reduces to finding the k nearest neighbors to a query object. Finding the k nearest neighbors is achieved by applying either a depth-first or a ...
—We analyze how node mobility can influence the convergence time of averaging gossip algorithms on networks. Our main result is that even a small number of fully mobile nodes ca...
