Replication on multiple nodes is an effective way to improve the availability in the P2P or grid environment. It is difficult to determine how many replicas can fulfill the user r...
Due to the mobility of nodes in Ad hoc networks, network topology is dynamic and unpredictable, which leads to frequent network partitioning. This partitioning disconnects many no...
The increasing diffusion of wireless-enabled portable devices is pushing towards service provisioning over dense Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs), i.e., limited spatial regions, su...

We develop a queueing model for analyzing resource replication strategies in wireless sensor networks. The model can be used to minimize either the total transmission rate of the ...
