Abstract. In this paper, we study the two-tiered wireless sensor network (WSN) architecture and propose the optimal cluster association algorithm for it to maximize the overall net...
The dominant eigenvector of matrices defined by weighted links in overlay networks plays an important role in many peer-to-peer applications. Examples include trust management, im...
We present a flexible framework for throttling attackers in peerto-peer media streaming systems. In such systems, selfish nodes (e.g., free riders) and malicious nodes (e.g., DoS ...
In battery powered systems such as wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is one of the most important system design goals. In this paper, energy efficiency is examined fro...
The emerging service grids bring together various distributed services to a ‘market’ for clients to request and enable the integration of services across distributed, heteroge...
