In order to detect violations of end-to-end service level agreements (SLA) and to isolate trouble links and nodes based on a unified framework, managers of a service provider net...
Distributed software development support systems typically use a centralized client-server architecture. This approach has some drawbacks such as the participants may experience l...
Node lookup mechanisms constitute an integral part of any overlay network, and hence also of anonymous communication networks. Today, most anonymizers use centralized directories, ...
Abstract. We propose a distributed coalition formation strategy for collaborative sensing tasks in camera sensor networks. The proposed model supports taskdependent node selection ...
Replicating data objects onto servers across a system can alleviate access delays. The selection of data objects and servers requires solving a constraint optimization problem, wh...
