Computing aggregates over distributed data sets constitutes an interesting class of distributed queries. Recent advances in peer-to-peer discovery of data sources and query process...
Peer-to-peer networks can be divided into structured and unstructured based on their overlay topologies. In reality, unstructured p2p networks with superpeers have proved their cap...
This paper performs a comparative evaluation of two QoS architectures, RSVP Reservation Aggregation and Scalable ReservationBased QoS, aimed at providing QoS levels similar to the ...
The design of pricing mechanisms for network resource allocation has two important objectives: 1) a simple and scalable end-to-end implementation and 2) efficiency of the resulting...
Abstract—This work proposes a novel connectivity-based localization algorithm, well suitable for large-scale sensor networks with complex shapes and non-uniform nodal distributio...
