Finding an efficient configuration for cluster-based multi-tier Internet services is often a difficult task. Moreover, even a good configuration could become obsolete, depending o...
The performance of host communication subsystems is an important research topic in computer networks.1 Performance metrics such as throughput, delay, and packet loss are important...
Most existing dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) schemes for multiple tasks assume an energy cost function (energy consumption versus execution time) that is independent of the task ch...
Abstract--Recent technological advances have motivated largescale deployment of RFID systems. RFID readers are often static and carefully deployed in a planned manner. However, the...
We address the problem of highly transient populations in unstructured and loosely-structured peerto-peer systems. We propose a number of illustrative query-related strategies and...
