In this paper, we consider hybrid peer-to-peer systems where users form an unstructured peer-to-peer network with the purpose of assisting a server in the distribution of data. We...
In this work, the focus is put on the behavior of a system in case a fault occurs that disables the system from executing its applications. Instead of executing a random subset of...
Aloha-type random-access protocols have been employed as access control protocols in wireline and wireless, stationary and mobile, multiple-access communications networks. They are...
Context modeling for Vision Recognition and Automatic Image Annotation (AIA) has attracted increasing attentions in recent years. For various contextual information and resources,...
In the design of hard real-time systems, the feasibility of the task set is one of the primary concerns. However, in embedded systems with scarce resources, optimizing resource us...
