Abstract Flow Accounting is a passive monitoring mechanism implemented in routers that gives insight into trac behavior and network characteristics. However, processing of Flow Ac...
In self-organizing networks of battery-powered wireless sensors that can sense, process, and communicate, energy is the most crucial and scarce resource. However, since sensor netw...
We study the scalable management of XML data in P2P networks based on distributed hash tables (DHTs). We identify performance limitations in this context, and propose an array of t...
Systems that use or serve multimedia data require timely access to data on hard drives. To ensure adequate performance users must either prevent overload of disk resources, or use...
We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
