We present Geometric Broadcast for Heterogeneous Sensor Networks (GBS), a novel broad- casting protocol for heterogeneous wireless sensor and actor networks. While broadcasting is ...
In this paper we consider the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the l...
Widely deployed multimedia services are expected to accommodate clients in a highly heterogeneous environment. Clients of a multimedia service may vary greatly in processing and c...
Abstract. Load-Balancing is a significant problem in heterogeneous distributed systems. There exist many load balancing algorithms, however, most approaches are very problem speci...
