A composite multimedia object (cmo) is comprised of different media components such as text, video, audio and image, with a variety of constraints that must be adhered to. The con...
Tree-based reliable multicast protocols provide scalability by distributing error-recovery tasks among several repair nodes. These repair nodes keep in their buffers all packets t...
The goal of this paper is to introduce a new approach to the building of efficient distributed linear system solvers. The starting point of the results of this paper lies in the ...
In recent years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the use of data-centric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and vari...
Pfair scheduling, currently the only known way of optimally scheduling recurrent real-time tasks on multiprocessors, imposes certain requirements that may limit its practical impl...
