Main memory is a critical resource when processing non-blocking queries with state intensive operators that require real-time responses. While partitioned parallel processing can ...
— Power efficient operation is very critical in energy constrained multi-hop wireless networks. One important technique is to intelligently assign transmission powers to nodes w...
Abstract—In this paper we address the problem of energyefficient event detection in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Duty cycling is a fundamental approach to conserving energy i...
— We propose new algorithms to achieve k-coverage in dense sensor networks. In such networks, covering sensor locations approximates covering the whole area. However, it has been...
A comparative study of parallel metaheuristics executed in grid environments is proposed, having as case study a genetic algorithm, a simulated annealing algorithm and a random se...
