Volcano tomography provides valuable information concerning the internal structure of a volcano. During times of increased volcano activities, real-time images of the interior would allow seismologists to better understand volcanic dynamics. However, real-time tomography requires spatial coverage of the volcano utilizing large number of seismic sensors. The current broadband seismic sensors used in...
Our study reveals that facilitating warm launch of just five smartphone applications is extremely expensive, using up to 36 percent of memory. Further investigation of 20 popular applications indicates that rich multimedia applications have high heap usage and go above allowed boundaries, up to 5.63 times more heap than guaranteed by the system, and may cause crashes and erroneous behaviors. Therefore,...
It is well known that periodically putting nodes into sleep can effectively save energy in wireless sensor networks, at the cost of increased communication delays. However, most existing work mainly focuses on static sleep scheduling, which cannot guarantee the desired delay when the network conditions change dynamically. In many applications with user-specified end-to-end delay requirements, the...
Recent years have witnessed the deployments of wireless sensor networks in a class of mission-critical applications such as object detection and tracking. These applications often impose stringent QoS requirements including high detection probability, low false alarm rate and bounded detection delay. Although a dense all-static network may initially meet these QoS requirements, it does not adapt to...
