Abstract—We consider a cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) contend for spectrum usage, using random access, over available primary user (PU) channels. Ou...
Abstract—In packet communication systems, a header is attached to the transmitted packet at each layer. The overhead due to the transmission of the individual header can have a s...
We analyze the performance of a DHT-based P2P overlay network in resource access and overlay maintenance activities. We use a cross-platform implementation of the protocol called P...
Multi-core systems are the current dominant trend in computer processors. However, kernel network layers often do not fully exploit multi-core architectures. This is due to issues...
—In this paper we extend the class of MAP queueing networks to include blocking models, which are useful to describe the performance of service instances which have a limited con...
