Emerging large scale distributed networking systems, such as P2P file sharing systems, sensor networks, and ad hoc wireless networks, require replication of content, functionalit...
One fundamental issue in sensor networks is the coverage problem, which reflects how well a sensor network is monitored or tracked by sensors. In this paper, we formulate this pr...
Wireless sensor networks are often used in monitoring and control applications, where software running on generalpurpose computers “pull” information from remote sensors and ...
Peer-to-peer networks and grids offer promising paradigms for developing efficient distributed systems and applications. Event-based middleware is becoming a core architectural el...
Distance vector routing protocols (e.g., RIP) have been widely used on the Internet, and are being adapted to emerging wireless ad hoc networks. However, it is well-known that exis...
