This paper addresses the problem of scatternet formation and maintenance for multi-hop Bluetooth based personal area and ad hoc networks with minimal communication overhead. Each ...
Abstract— We consider a distributed multi-agent network system where the goal is to minimize an objective function that can be written as the sum of component functions, each of ...
We present a low-cost, decentralized algorithm for ID management in distributed hash tables (DHTs) managed by a dynamic set of hosts. Each host is assigned an ID in the unit inter...
DHT networks based on consistent hashing functions have an inherent load uneven distribution problem. The objective of DHT load balancing is to balance the workload of the network...
Recent technology advances have enabled mediated query processing with Internet accessible WebSources. A characteristic of WebSources is that their access costs exhibit transient ...
