Systems connected to the Internet are highly susceptible to denial-of-service attacks that can compromise service availability, causing damage to customers and providers. Due to e...
SyncProbe improves the end-to-end predictability of distributed systems by providing applications with a real-time estimate of the maximum expected message delay (upper bound on c...
–The performability of disk arrays systems has been studied before. However, in the case of imprecise data, a fuzzy model can be the base for the performability analysis. This pa...
The paper presents some preliminary results on dynamic scheduling of model predictive controllers (MPCs). In an MPC, the control signal is obtained by on-line optimization of a co...
Function Point Analysis (FPA) is a well-known method to measure the functionality of a system, from the user’s point of view. Both Albrecht’s original model and a local varian...
