In this paper, we perform a stochastic analysis of the packet-pair technique, which is a widely used method for estimating the network bandwidth in an end-to-end manner. There has...
Sequential elements, flip-flops, latches, and memory cells, are the most vulnerable components to soft errors. Since state-of-the-art designs contain millions of bistables, it i...
Recently, due to problems arising from lattice mismatch in thin film growth in semiconductor manufacturing industry, researchers have shown great interest in modeling the physioch...
This work focuses on one of the most critical issues to plague the wireless telecommunications industry today: the loss of a valuable subscriber to a competitor, also defined as ch...
