— Mercator is a program that uses hop-limited probes—the same primitive used in traceroute—to infer an Internet map. It uses informed random address probing to carefully expl...
Discovery of a network topology is a challenging task. Available algorithms that rely on simple hop-limited, traceroute-style probes give different performance in terms of the com...
Abstract. The interoperability of heterogeneous data sources is an important issue in many applications such as mediation systems or web-based systems. In these systems, each data ...
A heuristic algorithm that maps data-processing tasks onto heterogeneous resources (i.e., processors and links of various capacities) is presented. The algorithm tries to achieve ...
We demonstrate a prototype of the relational data mapping module of MIQIS, a formal framework for investigating information flow in peer-to-peer database management systems. Data ...
