Shannon's Coding Theorem shows that in order to reliably transmit a message of T bits over a noisy communication channel, only a constant slowdown factor is necessary in the ...
Abstract—Distributed routing algorithms may give rise to transient loops during path recomputation, which can pose significant stability problems in high-speed networks. We pres...
In this paper we will examine two main aspects of trust dynamics: a) How direct experiences involving trust, with their successes or failures, influence the future trust of an age...
-- We estimate the availability, reliability, and mean transaction time (response time) for repairable database configurations, centralized or distributed, in which each service co...
—The number of real-world applications that require QoS guarantees is constantly increasing and they often follow the publish/subscribe (pub/sub) messaging paradigm, which provid...
