It is well known that optimal server placement is NP-hard. We present an approximate model for the case when both clients and servers are dense, and propose a simple server alloca...
Nowadays, the source localization has been widely applied for wireless sensor networks. The Gaussian mixture model has been adopted for maximum-likelihood (ML) source localization ...
Resource discovery is a problem common to almost all distributed systems. Instead of resulting in a one or a small number of discovery mechanisms, completely different and incompa...
The advance in wireless networks and in positioning systems has led to the development of a new generation of mobile applications: location-based services (LBS). LBS offer highly ...
