In distributed software engineering, the role of informal communication is frequently overlooked. Participants simply employ their own ad-hoc methods of informal communication. Co...
In this paper, we use the concept of colored edge graphs to model homogeneous faults in networks. We then use this model to study the minimum connectivity (and design) requirements...
—Chains or multi-hop paths are the fundamental communication structure in Multi-Hop Wireless Networks. Understanding chain behavior is critical in order to build effective higher...

— This paper presents Pirrus, a replica management system that addresses the problem of providing data availability on a wireless sensor network. Pirrus uses probabilistic failur...
— For both technological and economic reasons, the default path between two end systems in the wide-area Internet can be suboptimal. This observation has motivated a number of sy...
