— We consider the problem of serving multicast flows in a crossbar switch. We show that linear network coding across packets of a flow can sustain traffic patterns that cannot...
We analyze a general market for an industry of competing service facilities. Firms differentiate themselves by their price levels and the waiting time their customers experience,...
Experimental performance studies on computer systems, including Grids, require deep understandings on their workload characteristics. The need arises from two important and closel...
In this paper we experimentally analyse various dynamic timeout adjustment strategies in server queues as potential counter-measures against degradation of service attacks. Previo...
We investigate deterministic broadcasting on multiple-access channels in the framework of adversarial queuing. A protocol is stable when the number of packets stays bounded, and it...
