— Advance reservation is a mechanism to guarantee the availability of resources when they are needed. In the context of LambdaGrid, this mechanism is used to provide data-intensi...
The architectural design of embedded systems is becoming increasingly idiosyncratic to meet varying constraints regarding energy consumption, code size, and execution time. Tradit...
— Lightweight protocols that are both bandwidth and power thrifty are desirable for sensor networks. In addition, for many sensor network applications, timeliness of data deliver...
