: Coverage is an important optimization objective in pre and post-deployment stage of a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN). In this paper, we address the issue of placing a finite set o...
Large-scale distributed systems provide the backbone for numerous distributed applications and online services. These systems span over a multitude of computing nodes located at d...
Abstract--Cooperative transmission protocols over fading channels are based on a number of relaying nodes to form virtual multiantenna transmissions. Diversity provided by these te...
Data replication is a key issue in a Data Grid and can be managed in different ways and at different levels of granularity: for example, at the file level or object level. In the ...
