Recent techniques for multicast or broadcast delivery of streaming media can provide immediate service to each client request yet achieve considerable client stream sharing (i.e.,...
A link is an unreliable FIFO channel. As we mentioned earlier, it is an abstraction of a point-topoint wire or of a simple broadcast LAN. It is unreliable because noise or other ph...
Symmetric Multiprocessors (SMPs), combined with modern interconnection technologies are commonly used to build cost-effective compute clusters. However, contention among processor...
In this paper we consider practical dissemination algorithms exploiting network coding for data broadcasting in ad hoc wireless networks. For an efcient design, we analyze issues r...

For data delivery systems such as video-on-demand service, an optimum design is presented to maximize the revenue of the system with priority classes. The willingness-to-pay (WTP) ...
