— Distributed channel access is essential for a wireless network without a central controller. In our previous research, we have proposed a distributed channel access scheme to a...
The existence of good probabilistic models for the job arrival process and the delay components introduced at the different stages of job processing in a Grid environment is impor...
This article introduces the concept of monotonic transactions. A monotonic transaction is a particular case of transactions for which the load arrival pattern is (or can be by rot...
Long cycle times in semiconductor manufacuring represent an increasing challenge for the industry and lead to a growing need of break-through approaches to reduce it. Small lot si...
A review of the main results obtained by the authors concerning analysis of networks with imprecise activity duration times, with a stress on the analysis of criticality, is prese...
