We study Reader-Writer Exclusion [1], a well-known variant of the Mutual Exclusion problem [2] where processes are divided into two classes–readers and writers–and multiple re...
Peer-to-peer applications can benefit from human friendship networks (e.g., e-mail contacts or instant message buddy lists). However these are not always available. We propose an...
Sensor networks have emerged as a fundamentally new tool for monitoring spatially distributed phenomena. This paper investigates a strategy by which sensor nodes detect and estima...
T h e ease of learning concepts f r o m examples in empirical machine learning depends on the attributes used for describing the training d a t a . We show t h a t decision-tree b...
Obtaining location information by localization schemes for sensor nodes makes applications of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) more meaningful. Most of localization schemes only us...
