Abstract Queueing Petri nets are a powerful formalism that can be exploited for modeling distributed systems and analyzing their performance and scalability. By combining the model...
Traffic burstiness has a significant impact on network performance. Burstiness can cause buffer overflows and packet drops and is particularly problematic in the context of small-b...
Abstract— In this paper we analyse a feedback system consisting of a finite buffer fluid queue and a responsive source. The source alternates between silence periods and active...
Based on the thermodynamic concept of a reservoir, we investigate a computational model for interaction with unresolved degrees of freedom (a thermal bath). We assume that a finite...
Stochastic Flow Models (SFMs) are stochastic ystems that abstract the dynamics of complex discrete event systems involving the control of sharable resources. SFMs have been used to...
