We present two classes of distributed algorithms called DRBA and DOBA, for decentralized, proactive resource allocation in asynchronous real-time distributed systems. The objectiv...
-- We estimate the availability, reliability, and mean transaction time (response time) for repairable database configurations, centralized or distributed, in which each service co...
— Networks employ link protection to achieve fast recovery from link failures. While the first link failure can be protected using link protection, there are several alternative...
