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...
Snoopy cache coherence can be implemented in any physical network topology by embedding a logical unidirectional ring in the network. Control messages are forwarded using the ring...
We describe a new algorithm for the visualisation of implicit algebraic curves, which isolates the singular points, compute the topological degree around these points in order to ...
Online auction sites have unique workloads and user behavior characteristics that do not exist in other e-commerce sites. Earlier studies by the authors identified i) significan...
Abstract—While mechanisms exist to instantiate common security functionality such as confidentiality and integrity, little has been done to define a mechanism for identificati...
