We assert that in order to perform well, a shared-memory multiprocessorinter-process communication (IPC)facility mustavoid a) accessing any shared data, and b) acquiring any locks...
In a distributed system or communication network tasks may need to be executed on more than one processor. For time-critical tasks, the timing constraints are typically given as e...
Abstract— Today’s networked systems are extensively instrumented for collecting a wealth of monitoring data. In this paper, we propose a framework called System-wide Similarity...
Consistent with the divide-and-conquer approach to problem solving, a recursive result is presented in the domain of stochastic modelling that derives product-form solutions for t...
—The pervasive diffusion of mobile communication devices and the technical improvements of location techniques are fostering the development of new applications that use the phys...
