We introduce the problem of managing a FIFO buffer of bounded space, where arriving packets have dependencies among them. Our model is motivated by the scenario where large data f...

Low disk throughput is one of the main impediments to improving the performance of data-intensive servers. In this paper, we propose two management techniques for the disk control...
— In the absence of a cost-effective technology for storing optical signals, emerging optical packet switched (OPS) networks are expected to have severely limited buffering capab...

All Internet routers contain buffers to hold packets during times of congestion. Today, the size of the buffers is determined by the dynamics of TCP’s congestion control algor...
Wireless LANs have been widely deployed as edge access networks in home/office/commercial buildings, providing connection to the Internet. Therefore, performance of end-toend conne...
