Simulation studies are frequently used to evaluate new peer-to-peer searching techniques as well as existing techniques on new applications. Unless these studies are accurate in th...
In this paper, we take an availability-centric view on quality of service (QoS) and propose a model and mechanisms for studying the effectiveness of realistic replication schemes ...
The time-constrained packet routing problem is to schedule a set of packets to be transmitted through a multinode network, where every packet has a source and a destination (as in ...
This paper presents a study of parallel genetic algorithms (GAs) with multiple populations (also called demes or islands). The study makes explicit the relation between the probab...
Composition languages like BPEL and many enactment tools only support structured process models, while most composition approaches only consider unstructured models. In this paper,...
