Improvements in microprocessor and networking performance have made networks of workstations a very attractive platform for high-end parallel and distributed computing. However, t...
In this paper we present an approach to increase the fault tolerance in FlexRay networks by introducing backup nodes to replace defect ECUs (Electronic Control Units). In order to ...
Virtualization has been shown to be an attractive path to increase overall system resource utilization. The use of live virtual machine (VM) migration has enabled more effective ...
— This paper explores optimization of paging and registration policies in cellular networks. Motion is modeled as a discrete-time Markov process, and minimization of the discount...
While some empirical studies on Online Social Networks (OSNs) have examined the growth of these systems, little is known about the patterns of decline in user population or user a...
