This paper presents a hardware/software co-design for Multi Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) using RSVP-TE as a signaling protocol. MPLS is the protocol framework on which the atte...
Evolution of software systems is characterized by inevitable changes of software and increasing software complexity, which in turn may lead to huge maintenance and development cos...
Coupling in software has been linked with maintainability and existing metrics are used as predictors of external software quality attributes such as fault-proneness, impact analy...
A good architecture is a necessary condition to guarantee that the expected levels of performance, availability, fault tolerance, and scalability are achieved by the implemented s...
