Recently, a number of researchers have started to investigate new video-on-demand (VoD) architectures using batching, patching and periodic broadcasting. These architectures, comp...
The goal of this paper is to illustrate how frameworks and patterns address complexities that arise in the design and implementation of high-performance distributed software syste...
In this paper we experimentally analyse various dynamic timeout adjustment strategies in server queues as potential counter-measures against degradation of service attacks. Previo...
Over the last decade, a number of methods for geometric matching based on a branch-and-bound approach have been proposed. Such algorithms work by recursively subdividing transforma...
The Esprit project PRODNET II1 (Production Planning and Management in an Extended Enterprise) had as its main objective the development of a reference architecture and a support in...
