Reliability is a very important issue in Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs). Shortest paths are usually used to route packets in MANETs. However, a shortest path may fail quickly, bec...
Numerical modelling is now used routinely to make predictions about the behaviour of environmental systems. Model calibration remains a critical step in the modelling process and ...
This paper presents a revised rate control scheme based on an improved frame complexity measure. Rate control adopted by both MPEG-4 VM18 and H.264/AVC use a quadratic rate-distor...
Shrinking devices to the nanoscale, increasing integration densities, and reducing of voltage levels down to the thermal limit, all conspire to produce faulty systems. Frequent oc...

In this paper, we present a new hybrid optical burst switch architecture (HOBS) that takes advantage of the pre-transmission idle time during lightpath establishment. In dynamic c...
