In the environment of wide-area networks such as the Internet, distributed query processing becomes problematic due to the changing coming from both underlying networks and user...
We consider a general QBD process as defining a FIFO queue and obtain the stationary distribution of the sojourn time of a customer in that queue as a matrix exponential distribut...
Service overlays that support distributed stream processing applications are increasingly being deployed in wide-area environments. The inherent heterogeneous, dynamic and large-s...
Many emerging distributed applications require the realtime processing of large amounts of data that are being updated continuously. Distributed stream processing systems offer a ...
In this paper, we present the design of a scalable, distributed stream processing system for RFID tracking and monitoring. Since RFID data lacks containment and location informati...
