Mobile code carried by a mobile agent can automatically travel to several data sources in order to complete a designated program. Traditionally, most mobile agent systems [7][8][1...
A range of database services are being offered on clusters of workstations today to meet the demanding needs of applications with voluminous datasets, high computational and I/O r...
—We propose a generic framework for distributed broadcasting in ad hoc wireless networks. The approach is based on selecting a small subset of nodes to form a forward node set to...
Remotely executing mobile code introduces a plethora of security problems. This paper examines the “external agent replay” attack, identifies the notion of one-way program st...
This paper presents the results from a detailed, experimental study of OSPF, an intra-domain routing protocol, running on a mid-size regional Internet service provider. Using mult...
—The Domain Name System (DNS) is an essential part of the Internet infrastructure and provides fundamental services, such as translating host names into IP addresses for Internet...

Three collision-avoidance protocols are analyzed that use omni-directional packet reception together with omnidirectional transmissions, directional transmissions, or a combinatio...
Lookup services are used in many Internet applications to translate a key (e.g., a file name) into an associated set of entries (e.g., the location of file copies). The key look...
Dynamic module replacement — the ability to hot swap a component’s implementation at runtime — is fundamental to supporting evolutionary change in long-lived and highlyavail...
