Abstract. The chief purpose of research in optimisation is to understand how to design (or choose) the most suitable algorithm for a given distribution of problem instances. Ideall...
No two flight missions are alike, hence, development and on-orbit software costs are high. Software portability and adaptability across hardware platforms and operating systems ha...
We consider networks of workstations which are not only timesharing, but also heterogeneous with a large variation in the computing power and memory capacities of different workst...
In this paper, we propose using the network-attached disk (NAD) architecture to design highly scalable and cost-effective multimedia-on-demand (MOD) servers. In order to ensure en...
This paper presents the Network Storage Manager (NSM) developed in the Distributed Computing Laboratory at Jackson State University. NSM is designed as a Java-based, high-performan...
