In this paper, we present a checkpoint-based scheme to improve the turnaround time of bag-of-tasks applications executed on institutional desktop grids. We propose to share checkp...
Spectral analysis represents a key component in signal processing. The on-chip implementation of classical spectral estimation techniques is generally not considered as a viable B...

— In WLANs, fairness is an important issue because the channel is shared by many users. This paper proposes a dual queue based scheme in an access point (AP) for TCP fairness amo...
— We suggest a statistical estimator to measure the extent to which failures propagate in cascading failures such as large blackouts. The estimator is tested on a saturating bran...

— We consider applications of sensor networks wherein data packets generated by every node have to reach the base station. This results in a many-to-one communication paradigm re...
