The simulation of human behavior in space is an extremely interesting and powerful research method to advance our understanding of human spatial cognition and the interaction of hu...
—This paper proposes a mobile-agent-based data gathering system (called TinyBee) in wireless sensor networks. Most existing mobile-agent-based systems consider only static sinks/...
Cluster computing environments built from commodity hardware have provided a cost-effective solution for many scientific and high-performance applications. Likewise, middleware te...
Abstract. In this chapter we survey the most recent proposals for modelling user mobility in mobile pervasive networks, and specifically in opportunistic networks. We identify two...
A radio frequency identifier (RFID) system consists of inexpensive, uniquely identifiable tags that are mounted on physical objects, and readers that track these tags (and hence...
