— In this paper we show that significant simplicity can be exploited for pricing-based control of large networks. We first consider a general loss network with Poisson arrivals...
—Cloud resources are usually priced in multiple markets with different service guarantees. For example, Amazon EC2 prices virtual instances under three pricing schemes — the su...
Abstract— We present a model for the joint design of congestion control and media access control (MAC) for ad hoc wireless networks. Using contention graph and contention matrix,...
Abstract. We discuss a case study for the hospital scenario where workflow model components are distributed across various computers or devices (e.g. mobile phones, PDAs, sensors, ...
The performance of host communication subsystems is an important research topic in computer networks.1 Performance metrics such as throughput, delay, and packet loss are important...
