This paper deals with scheduling divisible load applications on star networks, in presence of return messages. This work is a follow-on of [6, 7], where the same problem was consi...
Geant4 is a very large, highly accurate toolkit for Monte Carlo simulation of particle-matter interaction. It has been applied to high-energy physics, cosmic ray modeling, radiati...
In this paper, we present a parallel implementation for the steady-state analysis of continuous-time Markov chains (CTMCs). This analysis is performed via solution of a linear equ...
