Recently, a server-less video-on-demand architecture has been proposed which can completely eliminate costly dedicated video servers and yet is highly scalable and reliable. Due to...
Abstract. One of the main challenges of grid systems of large scale and data intensive is that of providing high availability and performance, in spite of the unreliability and del...
Abstract. Dependable distributed applications require flexible infrastructure support for controlled redundancy, replication, and recovery of components and services. However, mos...
A unidirectional link exists in an ad-hoc network when a node B is within the transmission range of another node A while node A cannot directly hear node B. However, a reverse rou...
In large networks, maintaining precise global network state information is almost impossible. Many factors, such as non-negligible propagation delay, infrequent state updates due ...
