Workflow enactment systems are becoming an effective solution to ease programming, deployment and execution of distributed applications in several domains such as telecommunicatio...
This paper describes the multi-agent organization of a computer system that was designed to assist operators in decision making in the presence of emergencies. The application was ...
Simulation has always been a valuable tool for experimentation and validation of models, architectures and mechanisms in the field of networking. In the case of the DiffServ frame...
FEC mechanisms have been proposed to recover from packet losses, and hence to improve the perceived quality in audio applications. Recently, it has been shown in [1] that the redun...
— The packet losses imposed by IP networks can cause long and erratic recovery delays, since senders must often use conservative loss detection and retransmission mechanisms. Thi...
