Cuzzocrea, A.; Papadimitriou, A.; Katsaros, D.; Manolopoulos, Y. (2012)In this paper we propose a novel topology-control algorithm, called edge betweenness centrality (EBC). EBC is based on the concept of betweenness centrality, which has been first introduced in the context of social network ... -
Energy-efficient distributed clustering in wireless sensor networks
Dimokas, N.; Katsaros, D.; Manolopoulos, Y. (2010)The deployment of wireless sensor networks in many application areas requires self-organization of the network nodes into clusters. Clustering is a network management technique, since it creates a hierarchical structure ... -
Generalized Hirsch h-index for disclosing latent facts in citation networks
Sidiropoulos, A.; Katsaros, D.; Manolopoulos, Y. (2007)What is the value of a scientist and its impact upon the scientific thinking? How can we measure the prestige of a journal or a conference? The evaluation of the scientific work of a scientist and the estimation of the ... -
Generalized indexing for energy-efficient access to partially ordered broadcast data in wireless networks
Katsaros, D.; Dimokas, N.; Manolopoulos, Y. (2006)Energy conservation and access efficiency are two fundamental though competing goals in broadcast wireless networks. To tackle the energy penalty from sequential searching, the interleaving of index with data items has ... -
