Farm is a distributed simulation environment for modeling the performance of large-scale multi-agent systems. It uses a component-based architecture to distribute the computationa...
We study video transcoding for accelerated channel changes in IPTV systems. Video transcoding at the Retransmission Server not only reduces the channel change latency, but also re...
— In this paper, we study the joint design of uplink and downlink resources in OFDMA-based systems. We first analyze the interactions between uplink and downlink, due essentiall...
In this article, we present a novel discrete-time Markov chain model of book-ahead bandwidthsharing mechanisms. We use this analytical model and a simulation model to understand t...
This paper presents an analytical model to compute the average service time and jitter experienced by a packet when transmitted in a saturated IEEE 802.11 ad hoc network. In contr...
