We give a simple framework which is an alternative to the celebrated and widely used shifting strategy of Hochbaum and Maass [J. ACM, 1985] which has yielded efficient algorithms ...
We consider the problem of selecting a subset of p out of n sensors for the purpose of event detection, in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Occurrence or not of the event of intere...
We study the admission control problem in general networks. Communication requests arrive over time, and the online algorithm accepts or rejects each request while maintaining the...
Interaction with a remote team of robots in real time is a difficult human-robot interaction (HRI) problem exacerbated by the complications of unpredictable realworld environments...
Ubiquitous computing environments accrete slowly over time rather than springing into existence all at once. Mechanisms are needed for incremental integration-the problem of how t...
