Unlike their hard realtime counterparts, soft realtime applications are only expected to guarantee their ”expected delay” over input data space. This paradigm shift calls for ...
Abstract— We study the problem of establishing secure communication channels in resource-constrained wireless networks using key predistribution. Pairwise communication channels ...
We propose a new method for automated large scale gathering of Web images relevant to specified concepts. Our main goal is to build a knowledge base associated with as many conce...
In a pervasive computing environment, one is facing the problem of handling heterogeneous data from different sources, transmitted over heterogeneous channels and presented on het...
The bidirectional texture function (BTF) describes rough texture appearance variations due to varying illumination and viewing conditions. Such a function consists of thousands of ...
