Quality of service (QoS) assurance is a major concern in media-on-demand (MoD) systems. Admission control is one of the most important issues that need to be addressed for QoS ass...
A well known industry application that allows controllable processing times is the manufacturing operations on CNC machines. For each turning operation as an example, there is a n...
Eigenvectors to the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplace matrix of a graph, also known as Fiedler vectors, are the basic ingredient in spectral graph partitioning heuristics....
A function of a protein is dependent on its structure; therefore, predicting a protein structure from an amino acid sequence is an active area of research. Optimally predicting a ...
As feature sizes shrink, transient failures of on-chip network links become a critical problem. At the same time, many applications require guarantees on both message arrival prob...
