In this paper we propose a lightweight algorithm for constructing multi-resolution data representations for sensor networks. We compute, at each sensor node u, O(log n) aggregates...
Network coordinates provide a scalable way to estimate latencies among large numbers of hosts. While there are several algorithms for producing coordinates, none account for the f...
