Communication and computation are often viewed as separate tasks. This approach is very
effective from the perspective of engineering as isolated optimizations can be performed …

The term “Internet-of-Things” is used as an umbrella keyword for covering various aspects
related to the extension of the Internet and the Web into the physical realm, by means of the …

Cyber-physical systems (CPSs) are the next generation of engineered systems in which
computing, communication, and control technologies are tightly integrated. Research on …

Given a network of interconnected nodes, each with its own value (such as a measurement,
position, vote, or other data), we develop a distributed strategy that enables some or all of …

The problem of reliably reconstructing a function of sources over a multiple-access channel
(MAC) is considered. It is shown that there is no source–channel separation theorem even …

Abstract Machine-to-machine (M2M) communications emerge to autonomously operate to
link interactions between Internet cyber world and physical systems. We present the …

Abstract IoT (Internet of Things) is a type of network where ICT (Information and
Communication Technology) links any physical objects to the internet to perform information …

In this paper we study the problem of scheduling wireless links in the geometric SINR model,
which explicitly uses the fact that nodes are distributed in the Euclidean plane. We present …

Data gathering is a basic requirement in many applications of wireless sensor networks
(WSNs). Because the energy of sensors is limited, the data-gathering mechanism must be …

Over-the-air computation combines communication and computation efficiently by utilizing
the superposition property of wireless channels, when Internet of Things (IoT) networks …
