This paper presents a Connectivity based Partition Approach (CPA) to reduce the energy consumption of a sensor network by sleep scheduling among sensor nodes. CPA partitions sensor...
A read-only transaction (ROT) does not modify any data. The main issues regarding processing ROTs are correctness, data currency and performance. Two-phase Locking (2PL) protocol i...
In this talk I present recent research in swarm robotics, the discipline that studies robotic systems composed of swarms of robots tightly interacting and cooperating to reach thei...
With multicore architectures being introduced to the market, the research community is revisiting problems to evaluate them under the new preconditions set by those new systems. A...
We investigate scalable algorithms for automated composition (WSC) of Semantic Web Services. Our notion of WSC is very general: the composition semantics includes background knowl...
