Causality and the Spatial-Temporal Ordering of Events in Mobile Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several mobile computing applications require that both the order of occurrence of events, and the location of their occurrence, be taken into account during decision making. Thus, processes need to track the location of nodes and synchronize their clocks. In this paper we present a framework, based on the capabilities of Global Positioning System, which provides processes with a global virtual clock and a positioning service. We introduce then the notion of space-time vector used by processes to track the mobility of

Resilience Enhancement of Active Distribution Networks Via Mobile Energy Storage Systems and Protection Coordination Consideration
Owing to the portability and flexibility of mobile energy storage systems (MESSs), they seem to be a promising solution to improve the resilience of the distribution system (DS). So, this paper presents a rolling optimization mechanism for dispatching MESSs and other resources in microgrids in case of a natural disaster occurrence. The proposed mechanism aims to minimize the total system cost b...
متن کاملA Review of Spatial Factor Modeling Techniques in Recommending Point of Interest Using Location-based Social Network Information
The rapid growth of mobile phone technology and its combination with various technologies like GPS has added location context to social networks and has led to the formation of location-based social networks. In social networking sites, recommender systems are used to recommend points of interest (POIs) to users. Traditional recommender systems, such as film and book recommendations, have a lon...
متن کاملCausality and the Spatial-Temporal Ordering in Mobile Systems
Several mobile computing applications require that both the order and location of occurrence of events be taken into account during decision making. Thus, processes need to track the location of nodes and synchronize their clocks. The Global Positioning System can be employed to mimic a global virtual clock that keeps the local clocks of participating nodes in synchrony with each other. The glo...
متن کاملOptimal Trajectory Planning of a Mobile Robot with Spatial Manipulator For Spatial Obstacle Avoidance
Mobile robots that consist of a mobile platform with one or many manipulators mounted on it are of great interest in a number of applications. Combination of platform and manipulator causes robot operates in extended work space. The analysis of these systems includes kinematics redundancy that makes more complicated problem. However, it gives more feasibility to robotic systems because of the e...
متن کاملUnderstanding Temporal Human Mobility Patterns in a City by Mobile Cellular Data Mining, Case Study: Tehran City
Recent studies have shown that urban complex behaviors like human mobility should be examined by newer and smarter methods. The ubiquitous use of mobile phones and other smart communication devices helps us use a bigger amount of data that can be browsed by the hours of the day, the days of the week, geographic area, meteorological conditions, and so on. In this article, mobile cellular data mi...
