Dominique Foray defines the concept of smart specialisation, how it can be managed, and reflects on how Europe is finding its own way toward the knowledge economy... ...
In this work we consider the problem of sensor localization when only the connectivity information is available. More specifically, we compare the performance of the centralized algorithm MDS-MAP with its distributed version HOP-TERRAIN. We show that both ...
In this paper, we examined the effect of knowledge interdependence among co-learners on knowledge convergence outcomes. Prior to collaboration, two partners read the same text in the independent condition while each of them read one of two complementary te ...
Neighbor discovery is essential for the process of self-organization of a wireless network, where almost all routing and medium access protocols need knowledge of one-hop neighbors. In this paper we study the problem of neighbor discovery in a static and s ...

A large and growing body of empirical research shows that social relationships and the networks these relationships constitute are influential in explaining the processes of knowledge creation, diffusion, absorption and use. We refer to such networks as “k ...
PURPOSE. Knowledge of genetic factors predisposing to age-related cataract is very limited. The aim of this study was to identify DNA sequences that either lead to or predispose for this disease. ...
The invention relates to a method and a device for wireless transmission between at least one first transducer (T1) arranged in a first location and at least one second transducer (T2) arranged in a second location remote from the first location without us ...
Priorities are used to control the execution of systems to meet given requirements for optimal use of resources, e.g., by using scheduling policies. For distributed systems it is hard to find efficient implementations for priorities; because they express c ...
Designing a communication protocol for sensor networks often involves obtaining the "right" trade-off between energy efficiency and reliability. In this paper, we show that network coding provides a means to elegantly balance these two goals. We present th ...
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are a peculiar subclass of mobile ad hoc networks that raise a number of technical challenges, notably from the point of view of their mobility models. In this paper, we provide a thorough analysis of the connectivity of ...
