We demonstrate how to apply Coupling from the Past, a simulation technique for exact sampling, to Markov chains based on TCP variants. This approach provides a new, statistically ...
In this paper we analyze the performance of execution of service workflows in virtual machines (VMs) used as resources in our service-oriented grid testbed (SGT). We chosen an app...

The current Internet is based on a stateless (datagram) architecture. However, many recent proposals rely on the maintenance of state information within network routers, leading t...
The paper presents an extensible Petri Net Markup Language (xPNML), which is an extended version of PNML. The xPNML format overcomes limitations associated with PNML structure for...
