Portable or embedded systems allow more and more complex applications like multimedia today. These applications and submicronic technologies have made the power consumption criter...
We describe a robot that is able to autonomously plug itself in to standard, unmodified electrical outlets by sensing the 60Hz electric fields emitted from the outlet. The building...
The problem of finding the broadcast scheme with minimum power consumption in a wireless ad-hoc network is NP-hard. This work presents a new hybrid algorithm to solve this problem...
This paper explores the relationships between power system static collapse and flows in topological cuts. It seeks a “local” detection of this “global” phenomenon. The pap...
This paper describes the design and implementation of a constraint satisfaction system that uses delayed evaluation techniques to provide greater representational power and to avo...
