In this paper we propose a novel late join algorithm for distributed applications with a fully replicated architecture (e.g. shared whiteboards). The term `late join algorithm'...
This paper assesses the predictability of network traffic by considering two metrics: (1) how far into the future a traffic rate process can be predicted with bounded error; (2) w...
Traffic engineering aims to optimize the utilization of existing network resources for load balance and failure recovery, and these are to be accomplished in a scalable fashion. Th...
A key consideration in building differentiated network services is the feasibility of maintaining stable and consistent service level agreements across multiple networks where allo...

The ability to classify packets according to pre-defined rules is critical to providing many sophisticated value-added services, such as security, QoS, load balancing, traffic acco...
Abstract-If data traffic were Poisson, increases in the amount of traffic aggregated on a network would rapidly decrease the relative size of bursts. The discovery of pervasive lon...
Abstract--The advent of electronic commerce and personal communications on the Internet heightens concerns over the lack of privacy and security. Network services providing a wide ...
