We consider the problem of admission control in resource sharing systems, such as web servers and transaction processing systems, when the job size distribution has high variabili...
This paper considers the problem of packet-mode scheduling of input queuedswitches. Packets have variable lengths, and are divided into cells of unit length. Each packet arrives t...
This work describes a stochastic approach for the optimal placement of sensors in municipal water networks to detect maliciously injected contaminants. The model minimizes the exp...
—Given n discrete random variables = fX1;111; Xng, associated with any subset of f1; 2; 111; ng, there is a joint entropy H(X) where X = fXi:i 2 g. This can be viewed as a f...
— In this paper, we propose two schemes for the load balanced Birkhoff-von Neumann switches to provide guaranteed rate services. As in [7], the first scheme is based on an Earli...
