Architectural designs for routers and networks of routers to support mobile communication are analysed for their end-to-end performance using a simple Markov model. In view of the...
This paper uses trace-driven simulations to evaluate two novel Web server scheduling policies called KSRPT and T-SRPT. K-SRPT is a multi-threaded version of SRPT (Shortest Remaini...
Decoupling flexible, scalable and asynchronous nature of publish/subscribe systems makes them a good choice for the mobile wireless domain. Our research investigates the applicati...
File systems using non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) promise great improvements in file system performance over conventional disk storage. However, current technology allows for a relative...

In this paper we investigate the burstiness of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and its impact on a network of finite TCP connections. A detailed TCP and network model is d...

Distributed applications using file sharing and file replication, conferencing, and delivery in multimedia systems often need to use the semantics of causal multicast. Causal mult...
We describe the application of a performance engineering methodology based on UML diagrams with annotations taken from the Profile for Schedulability, Performance and Time. The me...
It is known that the resources that limit the overall performance of the system are the congested ones, referred to as bottlenecks. From the knowledge of the bottleneck stations w...
