—Existing methods of measuring lifetimes in P2P systems usually rely on the so-called Create-Based Method (CBM) [16], which divides a given observation window into two halves and...
Architectural advances of modern systems has often been at odds with control complexity, requiring significant effort in both design and verification. This is particularly true ...
This paper presents a novel object-based video coding framework for videos obtained from a static camera. As opposed to most existing methods, the proposed method does not require...
We introduce a new class of games, congestion games with failures (CGFs), which extends the class of congestion games to allow for facility failures. In a basic CGF (BCGF) agents ...
— Large Clusters, high availability clusters and Grid deployments often suffer from network, node or operating system faults and thus require the use of fault tolerant programmin...
