Clock synchronization is critical for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) due to the need of inter-node coordination and collaborative information processing. Although many message pa...
Due to difficulties in distributing a single global clock signal over increasingly large chip areas, a globally asynchronous, locally synchronous design is considered a promising ...
The paper considers detecting and tracking multiple moving objects in real time by a multiagent active vision system. The main objective of the envisioned system is to maintain an ...
Ever shrinking device sizes and innovative micro-architectural and circuit design techniques have made it possible to have multi-million transistor systems running at multi-gigahe...
This paper describes an efficient optimistic concurrency control scheme for use in distributed database systems in which objects are cached and manipulated at client machines whil...
