Scalable streams provide a layered representation for transmitting media contents over a channel with packet losses and variable delay. In general, real-time streaming scalable me...
—Many real-time systems have firm real-time requirements which allow occasional deadline violations but discard any jobs that are not finished by their deadlines. To measure the ...

The management of networks has often been ignored in network-based computing systems due to the difficulty of estimating application programs' network latency and bandwidth r...
A new model of nonuniform traffic is introduced for a single-hop packet-switching system. This traffic model allows arbitrary traffic streams subject only to a constraint on the nu...
