The microfluidic probe (MFP) consists of a flat, blunt tip with two apertures for the injection and reaspiration of a microjet into a solution--thus hydrodynamically confining the microjet--and is operated atop an inverted microscope that enables live imaging. By scanning across a surface, the microjet can be used for surface processing with the capability of both depositing and removing materi...

Consider a scenario where radio base stations need to send data to users with wireless devices. Time is discrete and slotted into synchronous rounds. Transmitting a data item from a base station to a user takes one round. A user can receive the data item from any of the base stations. The positions of the base stations and users are modeled as points in Euclidean space. If base station b transm...

This paper considers the problem of detecting rogue base station in WiMAX/802.16 networks. A rogue base station is an attacker station that duplicates a legitimate base station. The rogue base station puzzles a set of subscribers who try to get service which they believe to be a legitimate base station. It may lead to disturbance in service. The strategy of attack depends on the type of network...

We study a dynamic allocation problem that arises in various scenarios where mobile clients joining and leaving the system have to communicate with static stations via radio transmissions. Restrictions are a maximum delay, or laxity, between consecutive client transmissions and a maximum bandwidth that a station can share among its clients. We study the problem of assigning clients to stations ...
