Abstract—A probabilistic analytical framework for decentralized load balancing (LB) strategies for heterogeneous distributed-computing systems (DCSs) is presented with the overal...
In this paper we define the Weak Mutual Exclusion (WME) problem. Analogously to classical Distributed Mutual Exclusion (DME), WME serializes the accesses to a shared resource. Di...
Abstract. A prominent source of complexity in the verification of ad hoc network (AHN) protocols is the fact that the number of network topologies grows exponentially with the squ...
Today’s scalable high-performance applications heavily depend on the bandwidth characteristics of their communication patterns. Contemporary multi-stage interconnection networks...
—The proliferation of wireless and mobile devices has fostered the demand for context-aware applications, in which location is one of the most significant contexts. Multilaterati...
