The design of large-scale, distributed, performance-sensitive systems presents numerous challenges due to their networkcentric nature and stringent quality of service (QoS) requir...
As mobile applications become more pervasive, the need for assessing their quality, particularly in terms of efficiency (i.e. performance and resource utilisation), increases. Alt...
Modelling and analysing distributed and mobile software systems is a challenging task. PEPA nets—coloured stochastic Petri nets—are a recently introduced modelling formalism w...
Continuity of stream playback is the crucial constraint in designing a continuous media server. From a distributed memory architectural model developed earlier, we found that ther...
We evaluate the performance of a class of two-hop relay protocols for mobile ad hoc networks. The interest is on the multicopy two-hop relay (MTR) protocol, where the source may ge...
