A class of synchronization protocols for dense, large-scale sensor networks is presented. The protocols build on the recent work of Hong, Cheow, and Scaglione [5, 6] in which the ...
Communication optimization plays an important role in building networked distributed applications. In this paper, we systematically evaluate four bandwidth reduction algorithms, n...
Abstract. We present protocols for distributed computation of relational intersections and equi-joins such that each site gains no information about the tuples at the other site th...
Abstract. Ubiquitous computing is a challenge for the design of middleware. The reasons are resource constraints, mobility, heterogeneity, etc., just to name a few. We argue that s...
We propose a parallel and distributed component framework for building Grid applications, adapted to the hierarchical, highly distributed, highly heterogeneous nature of Grids. Thi...
