In a distributed environment, the presentation of structured, composite multimedia information poses new challenges in dealing with variable bandwidth (BW) requirements and synchro...
In the Bayesian mixture modeling framework it is possible to infer the necessary number of components to model the data and therefore it is unnecessary to explicitly restrict the n...
—In this paper we show that it is possible to implement a perfect failure detector P (one that detects all faulty processes if and only if those processes failed) in a non-synchr...
Our Distributed Telecommunication Management System (DTMS) uses an object-oriented model to describe the networked Voice Communication System (VCS) to be managed. In order to allo...
Shannon's Coding Theorem shows that in order to reliably transmit a message of T bits over a noisy communication channel, only a constant slowdown factor is necessary in the ...
