Performance Modelling of Reliable Multicast Transmission
Our aim is to investigate reliable transmission for multicast communication and explore its relationship to multicast routing. We derive two characterizations that enable the comp...

Generational Garbage Collection and the Radioactive Decay Model
If a fixed exponentially decreasing probability distribution function is used to model every object’s lifetime, then the age of an object gives no information about its future ...

Lower Bounds on the Vapnik-Chervonenkis Dimension of Multi-Layer Threshold Networks
We consider the problem of learning in multilayer feed-forward networks of linear threshold units. We show that the Vapnik-Chervonenkis dimension of the class of functions that ca...

Analysis of an Efficient Distributed Algorithm for Mutual Exclusion (Average-Case Analysis of Path Reversal)
The algorithm designed in [12, 15] was the very first distributed algorithm to solve the mutual exclusion problem in complete networks by using a dynamic logical tree structure as...
