We extend the lower bound of Adler et. al [1] and Berenbrink [3] for parallel randomized load balancing algorithms. The setting in these asynchronous and distributed algorithms is...
Future computer networks are expected to carry bursty real-time traffic with stringent time-delay requirements. Popular shortest-path routing protocols have the disadvantage of ca...

A radio frequency identifier (RFID) system consists of inexpensive, uniquely identifiable tags that are mounted on physical objects, and readers that track these tags (and hence...
We introduce the problem of load-distance balancing in assigning users of a delay-sensitive networked application to servers. We model the service delay experienced by a user as a ...
In this paper, a hybrid sensor network consisting of static and mobile sensors is considered, where static sensors are used to detect events, and mobile sensors can move to event l...
