Recent evidence suggests that some characteristics of computer and telecommunications systems may be well described using heavy tailed distributions — distributions whose tail d...
We present a system for describing and solving closed queuing network models of the memory access performance of NUMA architectures. The system consists of a model description lan...
Developing and managing applications for environments consisting of independently congured computing systems interoperating acrossnetwork connections is of considerable interest ...
Multimedia applications using broadband networking technologies (for example, Asynchronous Transfer Mode) often require services not provided by standard transport layer middlewar...
