Formal modeling is a crucial first step in the analysis of safety critical communication protocols such as IP Telephony. These protocols are notoriously resistant to formal modelin...
Abstract. The purpose of this paper is (1) to provide a theoretical justification for the use of Monte-Carlo sampling for approximate resolution of NP-hard maximization problems in...
Strict consistency of replicated data is infeasible or not required by many distributed applications, so current systems often permit stale replication, in which cached copies of ...
The significance of high-performance dedicated networks has been well recognized due to the rapidly increasing number of large-scale applications that require high-speed data tran...
An adaptive particle swarm optimization (APSO) that features better search efficiency than classical particle swarm optimization (PSO) is presented. More importantly, it can perfor...
