Consider a weighted n-vertex, m-edge graph G with designated source s and destination t. The topology of G is known, while the edge weights are hidden. Our goal is to discover either the edge weights in the graph or a shortest (s, t)-path. This is done by means of agents that traverse different (s, t)-paths in multiple rounds and report back the total cost they incurred. Various cost models are...

IJPRES ABSTRACT – The Wireless detector network may be a self-organized wireless network system well-grooved by numbers of energylimited small sensors underneath the banner of industrial application (IA). During this project, a secure and economical value aware procurer routing protocol to address two conflicting issues: they're lifespan optimization and security. Through the energy balance man...

We present a system architecture and framework for creating rapidly deployable intelligent environments. The rapid pace of innovation of computer hardware and intelligent systems software leads to uncertainty that deters manufacturers from adopting a single processor, network, or software environment for placement into their products. The MASC Composable Computing infrastructure addresses these...

Abstract—The amount of information transmitted using the Internet and a wireless network is continuously increasing, where predominant amount of information is image data. Sharing utilities, being easy, economical and technically sophisticated, are used abundantly by industries, businesses and individuals. However, this introduces serious concern on the protection issues which arise from the ac...

MEMS ultrasonic transducers are potentially valuable in both medical and non-destructive testing applications. A prime advantage of these transducers is their wide bandwidth together with the potential for economical fabrication of detector arrays. In this paper, we discuss issues related to the coupling of these transducers to solid and liquid media. We will show that appropriate choice of the...
