Replication is a well-know fault-tolerance technique, and several replication strategies exist (e.g. active, passive, and semi-active replication). To be used in hard real-time sy...
— We study the problem of relay selection in a wireless cooperative network. Assuming a single source, a single destination, and N uniformly distributed candidate relays, we seek...
This paper extends the Boltzmann Selection, a method in EDA with theoretical importance, from discrete domain to the continuous one. The difficulty of estimating the exact Boltzma...
Effective peer selection for intelligent query routing is a challenge in collaborative peer-based Web search systems, especially unstructured networks that do not have any central...
Many large-scale utility computing infrastructures comprise heterogeneous hardware and software resources. This raises the need for scalable resource selection services, which ide...
