We study query scheduling in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) with a focus on two important metrics: Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Data (QoD). The motivation comes from o...
—In sensor networks, both energy and bandwidth are scarce resources. In the past, many energy efficient routing algorithms have been devised in order to maximize network lifetim...
Every-day, the postal sorting systems diffuse several tons of mails. It is noted that the principal origin of mail rejection is related to the failure of address-block localizatio...
Negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) is one of the primary limiters of reliability lifetime in nano-scale integrated circuits. NBTI manifests itself in a gradual increase ...
— Two fundamental properties of wireless networks, the variable link quality and the broadcast nature of the transmission, have often been ignored in the design of routing protoc...
