—The design of computer and communication systems has been based, for decades, on the fundamental assumption that the objective of all users is to improve their own performance. ...
We pose the question: how do we efficiently evaluate a join operator, distributed over a heterogeneous network? Our objective here is to optimize the delay of output tuples. We di...
Communication is a primary source of energy consumption in wireless sensor networks. Due to resource constraints, the sensor nodes may not have enough energy to report every readin...
In the near future, the advent of large-scale networks of mobile agents autonomously performing long-term sensing and communication tasks will be upon us. However, using controlle...
