This paper contributes in two directions. First, several concepts of our matrix approach to graph transformation [1,2] such as coherence and minimal initial digraph are applied to ...
An inelastic flow is a flow with inelastic rate: i.e., the rate is fixed, it cannot be dynamically adjusted to traffic and load condition as in elastic flows like TCP. Real ti...
We consider a general QBD process as defining a FIFO queue and obtain the stationary distribution of the sojourn time of a customer in that queue as a matrix exponential distribut...
We present and validate TICP, a TCP-friendly reliable transport protocol to collect information from a large number of sources spread over the Internet. TICP is a stand-alone proto...
A novel physics-based fusion of multispectral images within the visual spectra is proposed for the purpose of improving face recognition under constant or varying illumination. Sp...
