Wireless communications and device miniaturization are enabling pervasive scenarios where the limited resource availability and the wide heterogeneity of access terminals make cruc...
— Modern networks provide a QoS (quality of service) model to go beyond best-effort services, but current QoS models are oriented towards low-level network parameters (e.g., band...
Abstract. We introduce the concept of Dynamic Rate Shaping, a technique to adapt the rate ofcompressed video bitstreams MPEG-1, MPEG2, H.261, as well as JPEG to dynamically varyi...
— Replication is a technique widely used for large networked software systems to provide qualities such as reliability, availability, performance and scalability to their clients...
Abstract Grid Computing is now in the state of development that can offer dynamic management of various parameters that affect the applications’ properties such as performance an...
