: Persistent connections address inefficiencies associated with multiple concurrent connections. They can improve response time when successfully used with pipelining to retrieve a...
We consider the classical finite-state discounted Markovian decision problem, and we introduce a new policy iteration-like algorithm for finding the optimal state costs or Q-facto...
Industrial processes can be often modelled using Petri nets. If all the process variables (or events) are assumed to be twovalued signals, then it is possible to obtain a hardware...
The current Internet only supports best-effort traffic. New high-speed technologies such as ATM (asynchronous transfer mode), gigabit Ethernet, fast Ethernet, and frame relay, have...

This paper presents a comprehensive design methodology for guaranteeing end-to-end requirements of real-time systems. Applications are structured as a set of process components co...
