Mediator systems integrate distributed, heterogeneous and autonomous data sources, but their e ective use requires the solution of hard query optimization problems. This is usuall...
As traffic on the Internet continues to grow exponentially, there is a real need to solve scalability and traffic engineering simultaneously — specifically, without using over-p...
provide tools or abstractions that allow developers to program in parallel. But what hardware do we need to support shared memory threads? The hardware should provide a well-defin...
The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) may introduce misleading routing information into the routing table, due to network topology changes such as link or router failures. This is...
Distributed-air-jet MEMS-based systems have been proposed to manipulate small parts with high velocities and without any friction problems. The control of such distributed systems ...
