Abstract We present methods and tools for modeling autonomously controlled production networks and investigation of their stability properties. Production networks are described as...
Many large scale systems, like grids and structured peer to peer systems, operate on a constrained topology. Since underlying networks do not expose the real topology to the appli...
Production grids are complex and highly variable systems whose behavior is not well understood and difficult to anticipate. The goal of this study is to estimate the impact of the ...
Congestion avoidance mechanisms allow a network to operate in the optimal region of low delay and high throughput, thereby, preventing the network from becoming congested. This is ...
We evaluate response times, in N-user collaborations, of the popular centralized (client-server) and replicated (peer-to-peer) architectures, and a hybrid architecture in which ea...
