One of the main issues in the design of sensor networks is energy efficient communication of time-critical data. Energy wastage can be caused by failed packet transmission attempts...
— We consider the fundamental delay tradeoffs for utility optimal scheduling in a general network with time varying channels. A network controller acts on randomly arriving data ...
Optimizing the pump-scheduling is an interesting proposal to achieve cost reductions in water distribution pumping stations. As systems grow, pump-scheduling becomes a very diffic...
Abstract. RF-powered smart cards are widely used in different application areas today. For smart cards not only performance is an important attribute, but also the power consumed ...
