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...
Burstiness and temporal dependence in service processes are often found in multi-tier architectures and storage devices and must be captured accurately in capacity planning models...
This paper deals with the problem of scheduling aperiodic groups of tasks in distributed systems. It proposes two contributions, namely: i) a distributed scheduling algorithm to b...

In this paper we present improved techniques for the schedulability analysis of tasks with precedence relations in multiprocessor and distributed systems, scheduled under a preemp...
