This paper describes automatic protocol generation (APG for short), a novel mechanism to generate security protocols automatically. With APG, the protocol designer inputs the spec...
Performance evaluation is a central issue in the design of complex real-time systems. In this work, we propose an extension of socalled "Max-Plus" algebraic techniques to...
Multicast routing enables e cient data distribution to multiple recipients. However, existing work has concentrated on extending single-domain techniques to wide-area networks, ra...
