The timely detection that a monitored variable has crossed a given threshold is a fundamental requirement for many network management applications. A challenge is the detection of ...
Recently, wireless local area network (WLAN) hotspots have been deployed in many areas (e.g., cafes, airports, university campuses). The new IEEE 802.11e standard further provides...
Most P2P VoD schemes focused on service architectures and overlays optimization without considering segments rarity and the performance of prefetching strategies. As a result, the...
Efficient Resource discovery mechanism is one of the fundamental requirement for Grid computing systems, as it aids in resource management and scheduling of applications. Resource...
Scheduling problems are generally NP-hard combinatorial problems, and a lot of research has been done to solve these problems heuristically. However, most of the previous approach...
