—We analyze how node mobility can influence the convergence time of averaging gossip algorithms on networks. Our main result is that even a small number of fully mobile nodes ca...
Market-based mechanisms can be used to coordinate self-interested multi-robot systems in fully distributed environments, where by self-interested we mean that each robot agent att...
Besides a more widespread sensitivity to ecological issues, the interest in energy-efficient network technologies springs from heavy and critical economical needs, since both ener...
We develop a network of distributed mobile sensor systems as a solution to the emergency response problem. The mobile sensors are inside a building and they form a connected ad-ho...

Abstract — We apply finite state-dependent queueing networks to model mobility in mobile communication systems. Although they have been successfully used in the past to model ve...
