File prefetching based on previous file access patterns has been shown to be an effective means of reducing file system latency by implicitly loading caches with files that are li...
Peer-to-peer file sharing networks have emerged as a new popular application in the Internet scenario. In this paper, we provide an analytical model of the resources size and of t...

—In this paper, we present a novel approach for improving the performance of a large class of CPU and memory intensive passive network monitoring applications, such as intrusion ...
Abstract— Wireless Mesh Networks are a scalable and costeffective solution for next-generation wireless networking. In the present work, we consider the Round Weighting Problem (...
Network performance analysis relies mainly on two models: a workload model and a performance model. This paper proposes to use histograms for characterising the arrival workloads ...
