The idle computers on a local area, campus area, or even wide area network represent a significant computational resource--one that is, however, also unreliable, heterogeneous, an...
In this paper we present the Threshold Join Algorithm (TJA), which is an efficient TOP-k query processing algorithm for distributed sensor networks. The objective of a top-k query...
In this article, we provide mechanisms enabling the backup path computation to be performed on-line and locally by the Points of Local Repair (PLRs), in the context of the MPLS-TE ...
