We propose XRPC, a minimal XQuery extension that enables distributed yet efficient querying of heterogeneous XQuery data sources. XRPC enhances the existing concept of XQuery func...
Cluster based replication solutions are an attractive mechanism to provide both high-availability and scalability for the database backend within the multi-tier information system...
We use a constrained optimization framework to derive fundamental scaling laws for both unstructured sensor networks (which use blind sequential search for querying) and structure...
As more and more video content is made available and accessed on-demand, content and service providers face challenges of scale. Today’s delivery mechanisms, especially unicast,...

Since wireless ad-hoc networks use shared communication medium, accesses to the medium must be coordinated to avoid packet collisions. Transmission scheduling algorithms allocate ...
