In the design of communication networks, robustness against failures in single links or nodes is an important issue. This paper proposes a new approach for the NP-complete edge-bic...
— In reliable multicast, data packets can be cached at some nodes such as repair servers for future possible retransmission in loss recovery schemes. How to cache packets to opti...
Abstract. Designing storage area networks is an NP-hard problem. Previous work has focused on traditional algorithmic techniques to automatically determine fabric requirements, net...

This paper presents two novel genetic algorithms (GAs) for hard industrially relevant packing problems. The design of both algorithms is inspired by aspects of molecular genetics,...
— This paper contains a detailed description of the congestion control algorithm of TRAM, a tree-based reliable multicast protocol. This algorithm takes advantage of regular ackn...
