Abstract. A central issue in autonomic management is how to coordinate several autonomic management processes, which is assumed to require significant knowledge exchange. This stu...
— We consider dual subgradient methods for solving (nonsmooth) convex constrained optimization problems. Our focus is on generating approximate primal solutions with performance ...
In this paper we explore some of the connections between cooperative game theory and the utility maximization framework for routing and flow control in networks. Central to both a...
— Over the past few years, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems have become very popular for constructing overlay networks of many nodes (peers) that allow users geographically distributed...
In this article we present three key ideas which together form a flexible framework for maximizing user-perceived quality under given resources with modern video codecs (H.264). F...
