— Many of the issues that will be faced by the designers of multi-billion transistor chips may be alleviated by the presence of a flexible global communication infrastructure. I...
Networks-on-chip (NoCs) are an emergent communication infrastructure, which can be designed to deal with growing system complexity and technology evolution. The efficient use of N...
Depending on the physical structuring of large distributed safety-critical real-time systems, one can distinguish federated and integrated system architectures. This paper investi...
– We examine in this paper the tradeoff between application complexity, network complexity, and network efficiency. We argue that the design of the current Internet reflects a ...
—Connected dominating set (CDS) has been proposed as virtual backbone or spine of wireless ad hoc networks. Three distributed approximation algorithms have been proposed in the l...
