The M/G/1 queue is a classical model used to represent a large number of real-life computer and networking applications. In this note, we show that, for coefficients of variation o...
In this paper, we argue that a broad range of Internet-scale distributed applications can benefit from an underlying low-cost consistency detection framework – an alternative to...
Clustering is an important characteristic of most sensor applications. In this paper we define COSMOS, the Cluster-based, heterOgeneouS MOdel for Sensor networks. The model assum...
In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...
We describe the implementation of the Shoup-Rubin key distribution protocol. This protocol stores long-term keys on a smartcard and uses the cryptographic capability of the card t...
