—We investigate the problem of flow optimization in a parallel relay network which consists of a single source sending information to a single destination through multiple relay...
Negotiation techniques have been demonstrated to be effective in solving complex multi-objective problems. When the optimization process operates on continuous variables, it can b...
Layering of protocols o ers several well-known advantages, but typically leads to performance ine ciencies. We present a model for layering, and point out where the performance pr...
Abstract. We devise a theoretical model for dichotomic search algorithms for constrained optimization. We show that, within our model, a certain way of choosing the breaking point ...
Communication-induced checkpointing protocols that ensure rollback-dependency trackability (RDT) guarantee important properties to the recovery system without explicit coordinatio...
