We consider the general problem of tracking moving objects in sensor networks. The specific application we consider is that of tracking a chemical plume moving over a large infra...
Users expect future handhelddevices to provide extended multimedia functionality and have long battery life. This type of application imposes heavy constraints on performance and ...

In completely symmetric systems that have homogeneous nodes (hosts, computers, or processors) with identical arrival processes, an optimal static load balancing scheme does not in...
—In distributed computing systems (DCSs) where server nodes can fail permanently with nonzero probability, the system performance can be assessed by means of the service reliabil...
