This work focuses on improving the performance of video communications based on the recently developed H.264 Scalable Video Coding (SVC) standard over 802.11e wireless networks. Th...
Mapping problem-space features into solution-space features is a fundamental configuration problem in software product line engineering. A configuration problem is defined as g...
We pose the question: how do we efficiently evaluate a join operator, distributed over a heterogeneous network? Our objective here is to optimize the delay of output tuples. We di...
— We propose a novel mechanism for routing and bandwidth allocation that exploits the selfish and rational behavior of flows in a network. Our mechanism leads to allocations th...
Abstract. Distributed computing must adapt its techniques to networks of mobile agents. Indeed, we are facing new problems like the small size of memory and the lack of computation...
