Materials for an exploratory theory of the network society.
- The British Journal of Sociology
, 2000
"... ABSTRACT This article aims at proposing some elements for a grounded theor y of the network society. The network society is the social structure characteristic of the Information Age, as tentatively identi ed by empirical, cross-cultural investigation. It permeates most societies in the world, in v ..."

ned by their central technological paradigm and by their principle of performance. Following, and adapting to sociology, Christopher Freeman's de nition of a technoeconomic paradigm, I would characterize as a technological paradigm a cluster of inter-related technical, organizational

"... , and we can say the Campbell bandwidth is the minimum average bandwidth for en-coding the process across all possible distortion levels. IX. CONCLUSION We have presented two new derivations of the coefficient rate in-troduced by Campbell. One derivation solidifies its interpretation as a coefficien ..."

to the variance of that component. We discussed the implications of the latter result for realization-adap-tive source coding and provided a connection with the familiar reverse water-filling result from rate distortion theory. From the coefficient rate, we defined a quantity called the Campbell bandwidth of a
On Modeling Low-Power Wireless Protocols Based on Synchronous Packet Transmissions
"... Abstract—Mathematical models play a pivotal role in understanding and designing advanced low-power wireless systems. However, the distributed and uncoordinated operation of traditional multi-hop low-power wireless protocols greatly complicates their accurate modeling. This is mainly because these pr ..."

Bernoulli trials—a common assumption in protocol modeling but often illegitimate for LT—is largely valid for ST. We then show how this finding simplifies

QOS WITH RELIABILITY AND SCALABILITY IN ADAPTIVE SERVICE-BASED SYSTEMS
"... Service-based systems that are dynamically composed at runtime to provide complex, adaptive functionality are currently one of the main development paradigms in software engineering. However, the Quality of Service (QoS) delivered by these systems remains an important concern, and needs to be manage ..."

ANY-TIME FUZZY CONTROLLER
, 2006
"... Fuzzy logic has been successfully applied in various fields. However, as fuzzy controllers increase in size and complexity, the number of control rules increases exponentially and real-time behavior becomes more difficult. This thesis introduces an any-time fuzzy controller. Much work has been done ..."

of fuzzy control. Popular aggregation and defuzzification methods (max-min, sum-product, MOM and COG) are first shown to satisfy these constraints, and then three linearization methods are presented. Linearization methods are used to reorder fuzzy rules base such that a reordered rule base would result
