In this paper, we introduce a deterministic fluid model and two stochastic traffic models for wireless networks. The setting is a highway with multiple entrances and exits. Vehicl...
This paper presents an examination of different cache and processor configurations assuming transistor densities will continue to increase as they have in the past. While in the s...

The Switched-Current SI technique is a circuit method that enables analog sampled-data circuits to be realized with a standard digital CMOS process. At this time it is fair to say...
In this paper we explore the packet starvation effect (PSE) that occurs in Ethernet controllers due to the unfairness of the CSMA/CD algorithm. The PSE causes some packets to expe...
