Abstract--Current video-on-demand (VoD) systems can be classified into two categories: 1) true-VoD (TVoD) and 2) near-VoD (NVoD). TVoD systems allocate a dedicated channel for ever...
—Cognitive Radio Networks (CRNs) have recently emerged as a promising technology to improve spectrum utilization by allowing secondary users to dynamically access idle primary ch...
Efficient management of last level caches (LLCs) plays an important role in bridging the performance gap between processor cores and main memory. This paper is motivated by two key...
Abstract--Many shared-memory parallel systems use lockbased synchronization mechanisms to provide mutual exclusion or reader-writer access to memory locations. Software locks are i...
Adaptive groupware systems support changes in users’ locations, devices, roles and collaborative structure. Developing such systems is difficult due to the complex distributed ...
