We consider the problem of detecting and locating buried land mines and subsurface objects by using a maneuvering array that receives scattered seismic surface waves. We demonstrate an adaptive system that moves an array of receivers according to an optima ...

Data security in a mobile context is a critical issue. Over the last few years a new category of location-based services, the Enterprise LBS (ELBS), has emerged focusing on the demands of mobility in organisations. These applications pose challenging requi ...
This thesis studies communication and agreement protocols in wireless ad hoc networks from both theoretical and practical perspectives. The last decade has given rise to the rapid growth of wireless telecommunications such as cellular mobile phone networks ...
Mobile communication, in particular mobile telephony, is a service whose nonexistence nowadays is unimaginable. The ongoing, ever increasing penetration of mobile communication equipment, presently intensified by the transition from second generation1 to t ...
This paper proposes a discriminative approach to template-based Vision-based place recognition is a desirable feature for an autonomous mobile system. In order to work in realistic scenarios, visual recognition algorithms should be adaptive, i.e. should be ...
The environmental performance of presently operated GSM and UMTS networks was analysed concentrating on the environmental effects of the End-of-Life (EOL) phase using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) method. The study was performed based on comprehensive li ...
This paper reports on results from a field experiment using a pervasive game that aims at eliciting the influence of location-awareness of others in a mobile and collaborative task. We present the environment as well as first results concerning how differe ...
The purpose of this demonstration is to illustrate that an off-the-shelf Wireless Sensor and Actuator Network (WSAN) can be used to discover resource availability and guide mobile users to these resources without any support from a navigation system like G ...
We propose a single source reliable broadcasting algorithm for linear grid-based networks where a message is guaranteed to be delivered to all the nodes of the network. The nodes are mobile and can move from one grid point to another. The solution does not ...
In this paper, we address the problem privacy in video surveillance. We propose an efficient solution based on transform-domain scrambling of regions of interest in a video sequence. More specifically, the sign of selected transform coefficients is flipped ...
