When software products are assembled from pre-defined components, performance prediction should be based on the components also. This supports rapid model-building, using previous...
In most network models for quality of service support, the communication links interconnecting the switches and gateways are assumed to have fixed bandwidth and zero error rate. T...
Distributed Multi-Agent Systems (DMAS) such as supply chains functioning in highly dynamic environments need to achieve maximum overall utility during operation. The utility from ...

This paper analyzes a single server queueing system in which service is alternated between two queues and the server requires a (finite) switchover time to switch from one queue ...
The vast number of design options in replicated databases requires efficient analytical performance evaluations so that the considerable overhead of simulations or measurements can...
