Whereas efficient barrier implementations were once a concern only in high-performance computing, recent trends in core integration make the topic relevant even for general-purpos...
— In this paper, we develop contention-based medium access control (MAC) schemes for both best-effort data transmissions and delay-sensitive multimedia transmissions over WLANs. ...

In this paper, we present several enhanced network techniques which are appropriate for VLSI implementation and have reduced complexity, high throughput, and simple routing algori...
The networking performance available to Virtual Machines (VMs) can be low due to the inefficiencies of transferring network packets between the host domain and guests. This can lim...
