Some features capturing the computational completeness of P systems with maximal parallelism, priorities or zero-test using symbol objects are studied through Petri nets. The obtai...
This paper proposes a stochastic fluid flow model to compute the transfer time distribution of resources in peer-to-peer file sharing applications. The amount of bytes transferred...

Abstract—Performance is a key feature of large-scale computing systems. However, the achieved performance when a certain program is executed is significantly lower than the maxi...
Storage systems in emerging large-scale (a.k.a. peta-scale) computing systems often introduce a performance or scalability bottleneck. To deal with these limitations we propose a ...
