The asymptotic bias and variance are important determinants of the quality of a simulation run. In particular, the asymptotic bias can be used to approximate the bias introduced b...

In this paper, we propose a stochastic model to describe how search service providers charge client companies based on users' queries for the keywords related to these compan...
Network protocols are typically designed and tested individually. In practice, however, applications use multiple protocols concurrently. This discrepancy can lead to failures fro...

High-level formalisms such as stochastic Petri nets can be used to model complex systems. Analysis of logical and numerical properties of these models often requires the generatio...

Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks based on consistent hashing functions have an inherent load uneven distribution problem. Things are even worse in unstructured P2P systems. The objecti...
