Abstract. Weak fairness guarantees that if an action is continuously enabled, it is executed infinitely often. Strong fairness, on the other hand, guarantees that actions that are...
A strongly fair schedule is one in which tasks that are enabled infinitely often are also executed infinitely often. When tasks execute atomically, a strongly fair scheduler can...
Abstract— We investigate the fairness and throughput properties of a simple distributed scheduling policy, maximal scheduling, in the context of a general ad-hoc wireless network...
We consider the problem of designing distributed mechanisms for joint congestion control and resource allocation in spatial-reuse TDMA wireless networks. The design problem is pos...
Joins or chords is a concurrency construct that seems to fit well with the object oriented paradigm. Chorded languages are presented with implicit assumptions regarding the fair t...
