We present a method for using real world mobility traces to identify tractable theoretical models for the study of distributed algorithms in mobile networks. We validate the metho...
There are two popular parallel I/O programming styles used by modern scientific computational applications: unique-file and shared-file. Unique-file I/O usually gives satisfactory ...

In this chapter, we discuss a widely used fault-tolerant data replication model called virtual synchrony. The model responds to two kinds of needs. First, there is the practical qu...
We consider a system with two service classes with heterogeneous traffic characteristics and Quality-of-Service requirements. The available bandwidth is shared between the two tra...
