We present a new stochastic model for complex networks, based on a spatial embedding of the nodes, called the Spatial Preferred Attachment (SPA) model. In the SPA model, nodes have...

Publish/subscribe systems are used increasingly often as a communication mechanism in loosely-coupled distributed applications. With their gradual adoption in mission critical are...
This paper describes the creation of a new analytical modeling capability by bringing together the Naval Simulation System (NSS) for sea strike and COMBATXXI for littoral and land...
Abstract-- We study the convergence rate of average consensus algorithms in networks with stochastic communication failures. We show how the system dynamics can be modeled by a dis...
Markov chains have been used to model web usages and served as the basis for statistical testing, performance evaluation, and reliability analysis. However, most of such applicati...
