Abstract. In this paper, we consider a two-layer hierarchy, ı.e. micro and umbrella layer, cellular system, and propose a new hand-off mechanism to minimize call blocking probabil...
Layering of protocols o ers several well-known advantages, but typically leads to performance ine ciencies. We present a model for layering, and point out where the performance pr...
This paper attempts to track key performance indicators in order to assess the impacts of RFID technology in a five layer supply chain in the utility sector. Findings point to som...
Open MPI was initially designed to support a wide variety of high-performance networks and network programming interfaces. Recently, Open MPI was enhanced to support networks that ...
