A major challenge faced in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) is locating devices for communication, especially in the case of high node mobility and sparse node density. Present solu...
Recent work on BitTorrent swarms has demonstrated that a bandwidth bottleneck at the seed can lead to the underutilization of the aggregate swarm capacity. Bandwidth underutilizat...
As the study of graphs, such as web and social graphs, becomes increasingly popular, the requirements of efficiency and programming flexibility of large graph processing tasks c...
Clusters of high-end workstations and PCs are currently used in many application domains to perform large-scale computations or as scalable servers for I/O bound tasks. Although cl...
