Abstract—We study a network model in which each network link is associated with a set of delays and costs. These costs are a function of the delays and reflect the prices paid i...
— This paper proposes a controlled-load service that provides a network state with bounded and well known worst-case behavior. The service is primarily developed for real-time ap...
Abstract—Satellite networks provide global coverage and support a wide range of services. Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites provide short round-trip delays and are becoming increa...
— While packet scheduling for wired links is a maturing area, scheduling of wireless links is less mature. A fundamental difference between wired and wireless links is that wirel...
—Efficient server selection algorithms reduce retrieval time for objects replicated on different servers and are an important component of Internet cache architectures. This pap...

—In this paper, we argue that weak cache consistency mechanisms supported by existing Web proxy caches must be augmented by strong consistency mechanisms to support the growing d...
Ad hoc networks are characterized by multihop wireless connectivity, frequently changing network topology and the need for efficient dynamic routing protocols. We compare the perf...

— In this paper we use fluid model techniques to establish two results concerning the throughput of data switches. For an input-queued switch (with no speedup) we show that a ma...
