A delay of about 100 ms gives human communicators the feeling of live interaction. Since in a global network the propagation delay alone is about 100 ms, every other delay compone...
Despite many years of research, fair queuing still faces a number of implementation challenges in high speed routers. In particular, in spite of proposals such as DiffServ, the st...
Due to increasing complexity of modern real-time image processing applications, classical hardware development at register transfer level becomes more and more the bottleneck of te...
