This paper focuses on two problems related to QoS-aware I/O server placement in hierarchical Grid environments. Given a hierarchical network with requests from clients, the network...
To provide real-time service or engineer constrained-based paths, networks require the underlying routing algorithm to be able to find low-cost paths that satisfy given Quality-of...
By functionally decomposing a specific algorithm (the hierarchical secure aggregation algorithm of Chan et al. [3] and Frikken et al. [7]), we uncover a useful general functionali...
We consider a scenario where stops are to be placed along an already existing public transportation network in order to improve its attractiveness for the customers. The core probl...
Hierarchical peer to peer networks with multiple directory services are an important architecture for large-scale file sharing due to their effectiveness and efficiency. Recent ...
