Abstract With n servers that independently fail with probability of p < 0.5, it is well known that the majority quorum system achieves the best availability among all quorum sys...
We investigate issues related to the probe complexity of the And-Or quorum system and its implementation in a dynamic environment. Our contribution is twofold: We first analyze th...
This paper presents an ant-inspired algorithm for building a self-organizing information system of a Grid. Ant-inspired mobile agents travel the Grid through P2P (peer-to-peer) int...

—Cellular networks operating with a frequency reuse factor of one are often interference-limited. For that reason, base station (BS) cooperation techniques aiming at mitigating t...
