In this paper we consider a team of robots that are tasked with tracking a moving target cooperatively, while maintaining their connectivity to a base station and avoiding collision. We propose a novel extension of the classical navigation function framework in order to ensure task completion. More specifically, we modify the classical definition of the navigation functions to (1) incorporate measures of link qualities and (2) include the impact of a time-varying objective. Our proposed communication-aware navigation function framework is aimed at maintaining robot connectivity in realistic communication environments, while avoiding collision with both fixed and moving obstacles. We consider both packet-dropping and communication noise based receivers. We furthermore prove the convergence of the proposed framework under certain conditions. Finally, our simulation results show the performance of the proposed navigation framework.

In this paper, we present a novel combinatorial auction (CA) based trading infrastructure to enable the supply and demand of Cloud services from different Cloud providers (CP). We propose a new auction policy that considers the relationship among CPs (mutual business relationship) in bidding mechanism. In our new auction-based market model, we allow the group of service providers to publish their bids collaboratively as a single bid to the auctioneer. It gives service providers a chance to autonomously find partners and make groups. Then they can use group strategy to increase their competitive power and compete for winning the bid (s). This will reduce conflicts, as well as collaboration cost and negotiation time, among participants as compare to existing CA-based market model. We implement our proposed market model of trading service in a simulated environment and study its economic efficiency with existing model.

An access control model for semantic Web should be compatible with the corresponding semantic model. The access control procedure(s) should also take the semantic relationships between the entities (specified as ontologies) into account. Considering the benefits of logic-based models and the description logic foundation of semantic Web, in this paper, we propose an access control model based on a temporal variant of description logics (TL-ALCF). This logical schema enables us to express history constrained policies to enrich the policy-base with dynamic properties based on previous *** specification of each component of the model as well as the approach to define history constrained policies along with some clarifying examples are presented. The access control procedure of the model is proposed over the inference services of TL-ALCF.

The goal of this paper is to serve as a reference for researchers in robotics and control that are interested in realistic modeling, theoretical analysis and simulation of wireless links. To realize the full potentials of networked robotic systems, an integration of communication issues with motion planning/control is necessary. While considerable progress has been made in the area of networked robotic systems, communication channels are typically considered ideal or ideal within a certain radius of the transmitter, both considerable oversimplifications of wireless channels. It is the goal of this paper to provide a comprehensive overview of the key characteristics of wireless channels, as relevant to networked robotic operations. In particular, we provide a probabilistic framework for characterization of the underlying multi-scale dynamics of a wireless link: small-scale fading, large-scale fading and path loss. We furthermore confirm these mathematical models with channel measurements made in our building. We also discuss channel characterization based on the knowledge available on the geometry and dielectric properties of the environment.

Recently, with wide-spread of distributed systems, distributed monitoring systems are needed to mange such systems. However, since monitoring architecture of distributed system faces a huge amount of log data which come from local computing nodes, information aggregation is fundamental scheme for monitoring distributed system. In this paper, we preset a novel approach for extracting computing node-condition profiles by using sequential pattern mining, which is one of data mining techniques. Extracted computing node condition profiles represent node condition patterns which are occurred in many computing nodes frequently. Thus, extracted profiles enable summarized distributed system conditions to be small sized and easy-understandable information.

In this paper we consider a network of distributed sensors that are trying to measure a parameter of interest cooperatively, by exchanging their acquired information repeatedly over fading channels. We consider different ways of using the available bandwidth, in terms of what each node can send to its neighbors. More specifically, we characterize the impact of local fusion and show how it is a suitable policy when graph connectivity is low. When poor link qualities are the main bottleneck, on the other hand, we show how a diversity approach can be more beneficial. The proposed framework highlights the underlying tradeoffs between fusion and diversity approaches in cooperative networks. It furthermore explores the impact of multiple sensing on the overall performance.

Most of the e-government projects fail. The unreliability in e-government system is very high. There are many reasons for failure but among them lack of interoperability is one of them. The interoperability is one of the prime features of electronic government system. It helps one system to interact with another system. It integrates all the required entities in the common domain. Enterprise architecture is one approach of providing interoperability among the different systems. EA provides a unified standard at the different levels of a system. This paper discusses on use and challenges of EA in developing countries. It also provides the solution of the challenges and the approach of reducing the failure rate of e-government system. It has considered the case of Nepalese context which is applied in all developing countries, especially in South Asia.
