Abstract— This work is concerned with definining a performance index that can be used as an objective measure in the evaluation and comparison of ad hoc networking protocols. Sp...
Abstract—Distributed storage systems provide large-scale reliable data storage by storing a certain degree of redundancy in a decentralized fashion on a group of storage nodes. T...
Abstract— Many problems associated with networked systems can be formulated as network utility maximization (NUM) problems. NUM problems maximize a global separable measure of ne...
Abstract. We propose an extension of concurrent constraint programming with primitives for process migration within a hierarchical network, and we study its semantics. To this purp...
Abstract. Upgrading the software of long-lived, highly-available distributed systems is difficult. It is not possible to upgrade all the nodes in a system at once, since some nodes...
