We show that sampling with a biased Metropolis scheme is essentially equivalent to using the heatbath algorithm. However, the biased Metropolis method can also be applied when an ...
Power management in loudspeakers is used to extend the battery life of portable electronics and to prevent thermal damage to the speakers. Traditionally, speaker power management ...

An important type of spatial queries for sensor networks are K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) queries. Currently, research proposals for KNN query processing is based on index structures,...
— An ad-hoc network of wireless static nodes is considered as it arises in a rapidly deployed, sensor based, monitoring system. Information is generated in certain nodes and need...
We examine the trade-off between lifetime and distortion in image sensor networks deployed for gathering visual information over a monitored region. Users navigate over the monito...
