Communications systems, encompassing VoIP, IM, and other personal media, present different challenges for P2P environments than other P2P applications. In particular, reliable com...
This paper proposes a new principle for designing MAC protocols for spread spectrum based ad hoc networks ? inducing spatial clustering in contending transmitters/receivers. We fi...
Today’s data centers face extreme challenges in providing low latency. However, fair sharing, a principle commonly adopted in current congestion control protocols, is far from o...
This paper presents an efficient heuristic algorithm to design a power distribution network of a chip by employing a successive partitioning and grid refinement scheme. In an it...
In a recent work, we have shown that it is not possible to dependably build any type of distributed f fault or intrusiontolerant system under the asynchronous model. This result f...
