Efficient multi-dimensional data search has received much attention in centralized systems. However, its implementation in large-scale distributed systems is not a trivial job and...
This article addresses the problem of efficient multi-robot patrolling in a known environment. The proposed approach assigns regions to each mobile agent. Every region is represen...
— In wireless ad hoc networks (WANETs), e.g. wireless sensor networks, battery-powered devices are constrained by limited amount of energy. Many WANET applications require that t...
Total path length, or search cost, for a rooted tree is defined as the sum of all root-to-node distances. Let Tn be the total path length for a random recursive tree of order n. M...
We have developed a system to process database queries over composed data providing web services. The queries are transformed into execution plans containing an operator that invok...
