Elasticity of cloud computing environments provides an economic incentive for automatic resource allocation of stateful systems running in the cloud. However, these systems have t...
We examine distributed time-synchronization in mobile ad-hoc and sensor networks. The problem is to estimate the skews and offsets of clocks of all the nodes with respect to an arb...
Abstract-- A network of nodes communicate via noisy channels. Each node has some real-valued initial measurement or message. The goal of each of the nodes is to acquire an estimate...
Graph theory has been used to characterize the solvability of the sensor network localization problem. If sensors correspond to vertices and edges correspond to sensor pairs betwee...

This paper proposes a framework for distributed sequential parameter estimation in wireless sensor networks. In the proposed scheme, the estimator is updated sequentially at the c...
