This paper presents a performance comparison of several file system allocation policies. The file systems are designed to provide high bandwidth between disks and main memory by...
Given a convex polygon P with m vertices and a set S of n points in the plane, we consider the problem of nding a placement of P that contains the maximum number of points in S. W...
In this paper we develop a model for random walk-based search mechanisms in unstructured P2P networks. This model is used to obtain analytical expressions for the performance metr...
When heterogeneous congestion control protocols that react to different pricing signals share the same network, the current theory based on utility maximization fails to predict th...
In this paper, we incorporate a diversity mechanism to the differential evolution algorithm to solve constrained optimization problems without using a penalty function. The aim is...
