Lately the advances in centralized database management systems show a trend towards supporting rank-aware query operators, like top-k, that enable users to retrieve only the most ...
We consider an environment where distributed data sources continuously stream updates to a centralized processor that monitors continuous queries over the distributed data. Signif...
We consider the problem of determining the transmission power assignment that maximizes the lifetime of a data-gathering wireless sensor network with stationary nodes and static tr...
This paper studies connectivity maintenance in robotic networks. We propose a distributed coordination algorithm that can be combined with the individual motion control strategies ...
Low-complexity video encoding has been applicable to several emerging applications. Recently, distributed video coding (DVC) has been proposed to reduce encoding complexity to the...
