Applications of semantic technologies often require the representation of and reasoning with structured objects--that is, objects composed of parts connected in complex ways. Alth...
We investigate the question of whether a query can be answered using a set V of views. We first define the problem in information-theoretic terms: we say that V determines if V pr...
This paper addresses fault-tolerant topology control in a heterogeneous wireless sensor network consisting of several resource-rich supernodes, used for data relaying, and a large...
IDDQ testing has been used as a test technique to supplement voltage testing of CMOS chips. The idea behind IDDQ testing is to declare a chip as faulty if the steady-state current...
We study the joint allocation of three types of resources, namely, power, subcarriers and relay nodes, in cooperative two-hop multi-relay OFDM systems. Each relay adopts the amplif...
