We address the problem of calculating link loss rates from end-to-end measurements. Contrary to existing works that use only the average end-to-end loss rates or strict temporal c...
Pattern-based synthesis has drawn wide interest from researchers who tried to utilize the regularity in applications for design optimizations. In this paper we present a general p...
Many decades of work have been invested in the area of distributed transactions including protocols such as 2PC, Paxos, and various approaches to quorum. These protocols provide t...
The knowledge discovery process encounters the difficulties to analyze large amount of data. Indeed, some theoretical problems related to high dimensional spaces then appear and de...
