In this paper, we consider wide-area backbone networks where multiple connection-oriented guaranteed services with differing bandwidth/flow requirements are offered. Specifically,...
Current HTTP servers process requests using a first come first serve queuing policy. What this implies is that the web server must process each request as it arrives. The result is...
— Rate adaptive multimedia streams offer significant system and client benefits over non-adaptive streams. These benefits come at the price of increased complexity in providin...
Providing differentiated Quality of Service (QoS) over unreliable wireless channels is an important challenge for supporting several future applications. We analyze a model that h...
