We consider the problem of maximizing capacity in a queueing network with flexible servers, where the classes and servers are subject to failure. We assume that the interarrival ...
Current standards reserve one bit in the ATM cell header to indicate loss priority. When congestion occurs ai a queue lower priority cells can be discarded in order to insure a sm...
Recently proposed scalable on-demand streaming protocols have previously been evaluated using a system cost measure termed the "required server bandwidth". For the scala...

As the number of computing and storage nodes keeps increasing, the interconnection network is becoming a key element of many computing and communication systems, where the overall...
We investigate an optimal scheduling problem in a discrete-time system of L parallel queues that are served by K identical servers. This model has been widely used in studies of em...
