Abstract
Open Distributed Processing (ODP) is a framework for specifying open distributed systems, under development by the International Standards Organisation (ISO). It is based on the general idea of viewpoints - i.e. partial specifications of an overall system, from different perspectives [...]Abstract
© 2015 IEEE.In this paper, we study the problem of multi-resource fairness in multi-user sensor networks with heterogeneous and time-varying resources. Particularly we focus on data gathering applications run on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) or Internet of Things (IoT) in which [...]Abstract
There are a large number of workflow systems designed to work in various scientific domains, including support for the Internet of Things (IoT). One such workflow system is Node-RED, which is designed to bring workflow-based programming to IoT. However, the majority of scientific [...]Abstract
Resource sharing in the mapping of an algorithm to an architecture allows the same resource to be scheduled for different uses in different cycles, generally at the cost of increased schedule length. Multi-pumping is a method whereby a resource is clocked at a frequency that is a [...]Abstract
dvanced urban traffic control systems are often based on feed-back algorithms. For instance, current traffic control systems often operate on the basis of adaptive green phases and flexible co-ordination in road (sub) networks based on measured traffic conditions. However, these approaches [...]Abstract
This article presents a parallel evolutionary algorithm for public transport optimization by synchronizing traffic lights in the context of Bus Rapid Transit systems. The related optimization problem is NP-hard, so exact computational methods are not useful to solve real-world instances. [...]
