LOC8 : A location model and extensible framework for programming with location
Abstract
Location is a core concept in most pervasive systems-and one that's surprisingly hard to deal with flexibly. Using a location model supporting a range of expressive representations for spaces, spatial relationships, and positioning systems, the authors constructed LOC8, a programming framework for exploring location data's multifaceted representations and uses. With LOC8, developers can construct complex queries by combining basic queries and additional contextual information.

Client-side energy costs of video streaming
Ejembi, Oche; Bhatti, Saleem N. (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2016-02-01)Through measurements on our testbed, we show how users of Netflix could make energy savings of up to 34% by adjusting video quality settings. We estimate the impacts of these quality settings on the energy consumption of ...
