We introduce a problem directly inspired by its application to DWDM (dense wavelength division multiplexing) network design. We are given a set of demands to be carried over a netw...
In this paper we present the Clover architectural model, a new conceptual architectural model for groupware. Our model results from the combination of the layer approach of Dewan&...
Time synchronization is a crucial component of a large class of sensor network applications, traditionally implemented as a standalone middleware service that provides a virtual gl...
The current generation of protocol architectures, such as TCP/IP or the IS0 suite, seem successful at meeting the demands of todays networks. However, a number of new requirements...
Modern scientific experiments can generate large amounts of data, which may be replicated and distributed across multiple resources to improve application performance and fault to...
