In this paper, we use the concept of colored edge graphs to model homogeneous faults in networks. We then use this model to study the minimum connectivity (and design) requirements...
—A Virtual Private Network (VPN) aims to emulate the services provided by a private network over the shared Internet. The endpoints of e connected using abstractions such as Virt...
Providing real-time multimedia services over a best-effort network is challenging due to the stringent delay requirements in the presence of complex network dynamics. Multiple des...

We consider empirical evaluation of the availability of the deployed software. Evaluation of real systems is more realistic, more accurate, and provides higher level of confidenc...
Running in a highly uncertain and changing environment, Web systems cannot always provide full set of services with optimal quality, especially when the workload is high or failur...
