Abstract. Many real-time applications demand delay guarantees from the network. A network architecture designed to support these applications should be robust and scalable. The Int...
—IEEE 802.16 standard was designed to support the bandwidth demanding applications with quality of service (QoS). Bandwidth is reserved for each application to ensure the QoS. Fo...
Multiprocessor systems present serious challenges in the design of real-time systems due to the wider variation of execution time of an instruction sequence compared to a uniproce...
—Ad hoc networking will become a major technology for wireless connectivity beside the multimedia necessity within the next few years. There are too many applications where one-t...
In this paper, we present techniques for exploiting intermittently available resources in grid infrastructures to support QoS-based multimedia applications on mobile devices. Spec...
