The TCP window size process appears in the modeling of the famous Transmission Control Protocol used for data transmission over the Internet. This continuous time Markov process t...
Abstract—The demand for more bandwidth has lead to proposals for an all-optical network core. Due to inherent constraints of optical technology, only routers with small packet bu...
Optimization and design of production and service operations has been a cornerstone of simulation applications for many years. Recently there has been increasing interest in excel...
We introduce a new methodology for the exact analysis of M/G/1-type Markov processes. The methodology uses basic, well-known results for Markov chains by exploiting the structure ...
This paper studies the fairness with which competing flows share the channel in ad hoc networks using collision avoidance protocols. It is shown that the required multihop coordi...
