Abstract Self-healing, i.e. the capability of a system to autonomously detect failures and recover from them, is a very attractive property that may enable large-scale software sys...
The success of sensor-driven applications is reliant on whether a steady stream of data can be provided by the underlying system. This need, however, poses great challenges to sen...
Wireless sensor networks have attracted increasing attentions considering their potentials for being widely adopted in both emerging civil and military applications. A common prac...
