Leading agent-based trust models address two important needs. First, they show how an agent may estimate the trustworthiness of another agent based on prior interactions. Second, ...
: The use of multimedia sensor nodes can significantly enhance the capability of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for event description. In a number of scenarios, e.g., an erupting ...

Abstract--Recent years have witnessed the emergence of numerous new Internet services for mobile users. Supporting mobile applications via public WiFi networks has received signifi...
Based on the thermodynamic concept of a reservoir, we investigate a computational model for interaction with unresolved degrees of freedom (a thermal bath). We assume that a finite...
For real-time applications, it is necessary to estimate the worst-case performance early in the design process without actual hardware implementation. While the non-preemptive task...
