In contrast to a large body of theoretical work on computer systems, distributed systems are not idealised constructions, unconstrained by physical world limitations. They must be...
Network performance analysis relies mainly on two models: a workload model and a performance model. This paper proposes to use histograms for characterising the arrival workloads ...
The page migration problem is one of subproblems of data management in networks. It occurs in a distributed network of processors sharing one indivisible memory page of size D. Du...
We discuss evidence for the existence of mirror systems in the brain, including recent experimental results that demonstrate the use of shared pathways for the observation and exec...
Abstract—This paper presents an information-theoretic approach to sensor placement that incorporates communication capacity into an optimal formulation. A new formulation is pres...
