In this paper, we propose a general cross-layer optimization framework in which we explicitly consider both the heterogeneous and dynamically changing characteristics of delay-sens...
Distributed Shortest-Positioning Time First (D-SPTF) is a request distribution protocol for decentralized systems of storage servers. D-SPTF exploits high-speed interconnects to d...
Reputation is a fundamental instrument of partner selection. Developed within the domain of electronic auctions, reputation technology is being been imported into other applicatio...
Abstract. Our work involves the development of a prototype Geographical Information System GIS as an example of the use of process networks as a well-de ned high-level semantic mod...
— We present a novel distributed algorithm for constructing random overlay networks that are composed of d Hamilton cycles. The protocol is completely decentralized as no globall...
