— In deadline-based networks, the delay performance experienced by real-time data transfer largely depends on traffic deadlines and the load level along the data transfer path. ...
Scheduling divisible loads in distributed systems is the subject of Divisible Load Theory (DLT). In this paper we show that coalitional game theory is a natural fit for modeling ...
In this paper we formulate the static load balancing problem in single class job distributed systems as a cooperative game among computers. It is shown that the Nash Bargaining So...

We consider a class of networks where n agents need to send their traffic from a given source to a given destination over m identical, non-intersecting, and parallel links. For suc...
This paper presents the design of Mercury, a scalable protocol for supporting multi-attribute rangebased searches. Mercury differs from previous range-based query systems in that...
