Many complex real-time applications involve combined scheduling of hard and soft real-time tasks. In this paper, we propose a combined scheduling algorithm, called Emergency Algori...
The paper describes a new admission control (AC) algorithm for greedy TCP connections. The algorithm has passed positive tests in preproduction QoS IP network [2], developed inside...
Many protocols are designed to operate correctly even in the case where the underlying communication medium is faulty. To capture the behaviour of such protocols, lossy channel sy...
Interest in XML databases has been growing over the last few years. In this paper, we study the problem of incorporating probabilistic information into XML databases. We propose th...
