whitepaper This paper introduces a new metric, Energy Cost, devised to consider a balance of sensors' remaining energies, as well as energy efficiency. Therefore, ideally, routing algorithms should consider not only energy efficiency, but also the amount of...

whitepaper By exploiting the repetitive structure of a training symbol, a robust frame synchronizer is obtained and shown to resume to finding the peak of a certain correlation metric that is obtained by invoking maximum likelihood principles.
[13 Apr 2007]
whitepaper The throughput, delay, and energy efficiency performance of standard ARQ, metric combining, and RCPT (Rate Compatible Punctured Turbo) coded ARQ schemes are compared via simulations. The RCPT/ARQ schemes are shown to outperform the other two...

whitepaper We find that while the new trees do improve performance, the reason for their improvement comes mostly from a new Penalty metric, and not from a variety of other details in their implementation. In large databases, near-neighbor searches must be...
[24 Feb 2004]
Comment Well, on this metric British workers lead the way in Europe. For all of the many issues that face the German economy at the moment, Germany has been held to be a model of industrial effectiveness and efficiency for the majority of the last 20 years.
