This paper presents an analytical model to compute the average service time and jitter experienced by a packet when transmitted in a saturated IEEE 802.11 ad hoc network. In contr...
This paper describes a decentralized peer-to-peer model for building a Web crawler. Most of the current systems use a centralized client-server model, in which the crawl is done by...
Abstract. Recently, methods from provable security, that had been developped for the last twenty years within the research community, have been extensively used to support emerging...
The coordination paradigm has been used extensively as a mechanism for software composition and integration. Consequently, a number of associated models and languages have been pr...
Protocols which solve agreement problems are essential building blocks for fault tolerant distributed applications. While many protocols have been published, little has been done ...
