Recent statistical performance surveys of search algorithms in difficult combinatorial problems have demonstrated the benefits of randomising and restarting the search procedure. ...
We propose a surveillance framework (SECRETS: SECure Real-time ElecTronic Surveillance) that is a practical solution to safeguarding sensitive physical facilities like command and ...
In a multicluster architecture, where jobs can be submitted through each constituent cluster, the job arrival rates in individual clusters may be uneven and the load therefore need...

Static DHT topologies influence important features of such DHTs such as scalability, communication load balancing, routing efficiency and fault tolerance. Nevertheless, it is co...
— Traditional SLAs, defined by average delay or packet loss, often camouflage the instantaneous performance perceived by end-users. We define a set of metrics for service avai...
