Abstract—A multicast flow control framework for data traffic traversing both a wired and wireless network is proposed. Markov-modulated fluid (MMF) models are used for the rec...
In previous studies on 4-DOF parallel mechanisms with four sub-chains, only symmetric arrangement of those four chains connected to the top plate was considered. Such symmetric sha...
Online social networks are enjoying drastic increase in their population and connectivity. One of the fundamental issues in these networks is trust, which is an essential factor in...
In distributed and mobile systems with volatile bandwidth and fragile connectivity, non-functional aspects like performance and reliability become more and more important. To forma...
It has become increasingly popular to construct large parallel computers by connecting many inexpensive nodes built with commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) parts. These clusters can ...
