We study the stability of the commonly used packet forwarding protocol, FIFO (First In First Out), in the adversarial queueing model. We prove that FIFO can become unstable, i.e.,...
Abstract. This paper presents a model-checking approach for analyzing discrete-time Markov reward models. For this purpose, the temporal logic probabilistic CTL is extended with re...
In this paper, we describe an ongoing effort to define common APIs ctured peer-to-peer overlays and the key abstractions that can be built on them. In doing so, we hope to facilit...

Due to its high protocol overhead, both in data traffic and in round-trips, Java RMI is poorly suited for communication over slow wireless links. However, its performance can be ...

raction levels of communication models to allow designers to trade off between performance and accuracy. Contrary to [2][3], we present an optimization method which preserves the a...
