This paper describes the design, implementation and evaluation of a search and rescue system called CenWits. CenWits uses several small, commonly-available RF-based sensors, and a...
We examine the problem of retrieving the top-m ranked items from a large collection, randomly distributed across an n-node system. In order to retrieve the top m overall, we must ...
A key issue when designing and implementing largescale publish/subscribe systems is how to efficiently propagate subscriptions among the brokers of the system. Brokers require thi...
In this paper we present a new fault tolerant clock synchronization algorithm called the Fault Tolerant Daisy Chain algorithm. It is intended for internal clock synchronization of...
