Named constants are used heavily in operating systems code, both as internal flags and in interactions with devices. Decision making within an operating system thus critically de...
: This paper discusses the issues and promising approaches in (1) obtaining rigorous specifications of the quality-of-service (QoS) requirements associated with application functio...
Formation of suitable overlay-network topologies that are able to reflect the structure of the underlying network-infrastructure, has rarely been addressed by peer-to-peer applic...
The scope of wireless sensor network (WSN) applications has traditionally been restricted by physical sensor coverage and limited computational power. Meanwhile, IP networks like t...
In this paper, we discuss the architecture of a modular UNIX-compatible operating system, MINIX 3, that provides reliability beyond that of most other systems. With nearly the ent...
