Many communication networks such as wireless networks only provide stochastic service guarantees. For analyzing stochastic service guarantees, research efforts have been made in ...
This paper develops analytical models to predict the throughput and the response time of a replicated database using measurements of the workload on a standalone database. These m...

Although recent advances in theory indicate that burstiness in the service time process can be handled effectively by queueing models (e.g., MAP queueing networks [2]), there is a...
