Conventional implementations of communication middleware (such as CORBA and traditional RPC toolkits) incur considerable overhead when used for performance-sensitive applications ...
Application-specific safe message handlers (ASHs) are designed to provide applications with hardware-level network performance. ASHs are user-written code fragments that safely an...

State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-a...
Abstract-- We present a Start-time Fair Queueing (SFQ) algorithm that is computationally efficient and achieves fairness regardless of variation in a server capacity. We analyze it...
