Advance Reservations(AR) make it possible to guarantee the QoS of Grid applications by reserving a particular resource capability over a defined time interval on local resources. H...
— Many distributed multiple access (MAC) protocols use an exponential backoff mechanism. In that mechanism, a node picks a random backoff time uniformly in an interval that doubl...
In this paper, we propose a real-time communication scheme that can be used in general point-to-point real-time multicomputer systems with wormhole switching. Real-time communicat...
— We describe an algorithm to estimate the future cell throughput of a multi-rate broadband wireless network based on previous measurements. The total throughput of a cell depend...
—We consider resource allocation for distributed streaming applications running in a grid environment, where continuously streaming data needs to be aggregated and processed to p...
