Small-world experiments in which packages reach addressees unknown to the original sender through a forwarding chain confirm that acquaintance networks have short paths, a propert...
We address distributed real-time applications represented by systems of non-preemptive dependent periodic tasks. This system is described by an acyclic directed graph. Because the...
It is widely known that network bandwidth is easily monopolized by distributed multimedia applications due to their greedy UDP traffic. In this paper, we propose TCP-friendly MPEG-...
T. Rado conjectured in 1928 that if S is a finite set of axis-parallel squares in the plane, then there exists an independent subset I S of pairwise disjoint squares, such that I ...
Linear inverse problems are very common in signal and image processing. Many algorithms that aim at solving such problems include unknown parameters that need tuning. In this work...
