IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) employs the distributed coordination function (DCF) as the fundamental medium access function. DCF operates with binary exponential backoff...
The choice of a good annealing schedule is necessary for good performance of simulated annealing for combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we pose the simulated anne...
Performance critical services over Internet often rely on geographically distributed architectures of replicated servers. Content Delivery Networks (CDN) are a typical example whe...
Complex organizations need to establish access control policies in order to manage access to restricted resources. Role Based Access Control paradigm has been introduced in ’90 ...
The H2-optimal controller for systems with preview, in which the knowledge of external input is available in advance for the controller, is derived. The single input case is first...
