Versatile Low Power Media Access for Wireless Sensor Networks
, 2004
"... We propose B-MAC, a carrier sense media access protocol for wireless sensor networks that provides a flexible interface to obtain ultra low power operation, effective collision avoidance, and high channel utilization. To achieve low power operation, B-MAC employs an adaptive preamble sampling scheme ..."

scheme to reduce duty cycle and minimize idle listening. B-MAC supports on-the-fly reconfiguration and provides bidirectional interfaces for system services to optimize performance, whether it be for throughput, latency, or power conservation. We build an analytical model of a class of sensor network
Surface deformation due to shear and tensile faults in a half-space
, 1985
"... A complete set of closed analytical expressions is presented in a unified manner for the internal displacements and strains due to shear and tensile faults in a half-space for both point and finite rectangular sources. These expressions are particularly compact and systematically composed of terms r ..."

The market for corporate control: The scientific evidence
- Journal of Financial Economics
, 1983
"... This paper reviews much of the scientific literature on the market for corporate control. The evidence indicates that corporate takeovers generate positive gains, that target firm shareholders benefit, and that bidding firm shareholders do not lose. The gains created by corporate takeovers do not ap ..."

With the exception of actions that exclude potential bidders, it is difficult to find managerial actions related to corporate control that harm shareholders. Finally, we argue the market for corporate control is best viewed as an arena in which managerial
Efficiently computing static single assignment form and the control dependence graph
- ACM TRANSACTIONS ON PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES AND SYSTEMS
, 1991
"... In optimizing compilers, data structure choices directly influence the power and efficiency of practical program optimization. A poor choice of data structure can inhibit optimization or slow compilation to the point that advanced optimization features become undesirable. Recently, static single ass ..."

Cilk: An Efficient Multithreaded Runtime System
, 1995
"... Cilk (pronounced “silk”) is a C-based runtime system for multithreaded parallel programming. In this paper, we document the efficiency of the Cilk work-stealing scheduler, both empirically and analytically. We show that on real and synthetic applications, the “work” and “critical path ” of a Cilk co ..."

The particel swarm: Explosion, stability, and convergence in a multi-dimensional complex space
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON EVOLUTIONARY COMPUTION
"... The particle swarm is an algorithm for finding optimal regions of complex search spaces through interaction of individuals in a population of particles. Though the algorithm, which is based on a metaphor of social interaction, has been shown to perform well, researchers have not adequately explained ..."

in discrete time (the algebraic view), then progresses to the view of it in continuous time (the analytical view). A 5-dimensional depiction is developed, which completely describes the system. These analyses lead to a generalized model of the algorithm, containing a set of coefficients to control the system
Alpha-power Law MOSFET Model and its Applications to CMOS Inverter Delay and other Formulas
- IEEE J. of Solid-State Circs
, 1990
"... Abstract — A simple yet realistic MOS model, namely the a-power law MOS model, is introduced to include the carrier velocity saturation effect, which becomes eminent in short-channel MOSFET’S. The model is an extension of Shockley’s square-law MOS model in the saturation region. Since the model is s ..."

Using the model, closed-form expressions are derived for the delay, the short-circuit power, and the transition voltage of CMOS invert-ers. The resultant delay expression

for wireless data services, it is necessary to establish power control algorithms for information sources other than voice. We present a power control solution for wireless data in the analytical setting of a game theoretic framework. In this context, the quality of service (QoS) a wireless terminal receives
Dynamic Textures
