We introduce the problem of load-distance balancing in assigning users of a delay-sensitive networked application to servers. We model the service delay experienced by a user as a ...
The characteristics of ad hoc networks naturally encourage the deployment of distributed services. Although current networks implement group communication methods, they do not sup...
We investigate the feasibility of content distribution between devices mounted in moving vehicles using commodity WiFi. We assume that each device stores content in a set of files...
