— Many applications of sensor networks require the base station to collect all the data generated by sensor nodes. As a consequence many-to-one communication pattern, referred to...
Abstract. The coverage problem in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is to determine the number of active sensor nodes needed to cover the sensing area. The purpose is to extend the l...

Loop distribution is one of the most useful techniques to reduce the execution time of parallel applications. Traditionally, loop scheduling algorithms are implemented based on pa...
— We are developing a distributed computing system, Virtuoso, which presents virtual machines (VMs) as its fundabstraction to end users. Long-running noninteractive VMs may coexi...
Abstract. We consider the problem of scheduling jobs on related machines owned by selfish agents and provide the first deterministic mechanisms with constant approximation that a...
