In this paper, we study the fundamental limits of a wireless sensor network's lifetime under connectivity and k-coverage constraints. We consider a wireless sensor network wit...
Word processing software, email, and spreadsheet have revolutionized office activities. There are many other office tasks that are amenable to automation, such as: scheduling a vi...
The Java programming language and environment is stimulating new research activities in many areas of computing, not the least of which is parallel computing. Parallel techniques ...
Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...
