Sources of data uncertainty and imprecision are numerous. A way to handle this uncertainty is to associate probabilistic annotations to data. Many such probabilistic database mode...
VESPA (Vehicular Event Sharing with a mobile P2P Architecture) 1 is a system for enabling vehicles to share information in vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs). The originality of V...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing grids consist of peer nodes that communicate directly among themselves through wide-area networks and can act as both clients and servers. These syste...

Processing large data streams is now a major topic in data management. The data involved can be truly massive, and the required analyses complex. In a stream of sequential events ...
In IEEE 802.11 wireless LANs, the DCF access method and the PCF access method operate alternatively within a superframe to service the time-varying traffic demands. Due to differ...

Background: Generally speaking, different classifiers tend to work well for certain types of data and conversely, it is usually not known a priori which algorithm will be optimal ...
Most of the research proposals on Quality-of-Service (QoS) mechanisms have focused on providing guarantees in a single domain. Supporting QoS guarantees in the interdomain setting...
We propose a greedy algorithm to investigate the problem of how to schedule of a set of feasible transmissions under physical interference model. We also consider the fairness in s...

We consider large scale interconnected systems where some of the interconnections are characterized by uncertain bounded delays. The delays may for instance be due to a communicati...
