We study the distributed infrastructures required for location-independent communication between mobile agents. These infrastructures are problematic: different applications may have very different patterns of migration and communication, and require diffe ...
For a class of sensor networks, the task is to monitor an underlying
physical phenomenon over space and time through a
noisy observation process. The sensors can communicate back
to a data collector over a noisy channel. The key parameters
in such a se ...

This thesis is concerned with problems in decentralized communication in large networks. Namely, we address the problems of joint rate allocation and transmission of data sources measured at nodes, and of controlling the multiple access of sources to a sha ...
We consider the problem of correlated data gathering by a network with a sink node and a tree communication structure, where the goal is to minimize the total transmission cost of transporting the information collected by the nodes, to the sink node. Two c ...
For a class of sensor networks, the task is to monitor an underlying physical phenomenon over space and time through an imperfect observation process. The sensors can communicate back to a central data collector over a noisy channel. The key pa- rameters i ...

In this work, we consider the problem of designing adaptive distributed processing algorithms in large sensor networks that are efficient in terms of minimizing the total power spent for gathering the spatially correlated data from the sensor nodes to a si ...
Distributed computing is reshaping the way people think about and do daily life activities. On-line ticket reservation, electronic commerce, and telebanking are examples of services that would be hardly imaginable without distributed computing. Nevertheles ...
We consider the joint optimization of sensor placement and transmission structure for data gathering, where a given number of nodes need to be placed in a field such that the sensed data can be recon structed at a sink within specified distortion bounds wh ...
