In this paper we determine the optimal fraction c of the uplink channel capacity that should be dedicated to the contention channel in a DOCSIS cable network in order to minimize ...
Abstract. Sparse matrix-vector multiplication is an important computational kernel that tends to perform poorly on modern processors, largely because of its high ratio of memory op...
Video on Demand (VoD) services are very appealing these days. In this work, we discuss four distinct alternatives for the architecture of a VoD server and compare their performanc...

We propose the first polynomial-time code selection algorithm for minimising the worst-case execution time of a nonnested loop executed on a fully pipelined processor that uses sc...
The Wiener model is a versatile nonlinear block oriented model structure for miscellaneous applications. In this paper a method for identifying the parameters of such a model usin...
