We describe a decentralized, adaptive mechanism for replica location in wide-area distributed systems. Unlike traditional, hierarchical (e.g, DNS) and more recent (e.g., CAN, Chor...
—An approach for filling-in blocks of missing data in wireless image transmission is presented in this paper. When compression algorithms such as JPEG are used as part of the wir...
The Multi Exit Discriminator (MED) attribute of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) is widely used to implement “cold potato routing” between autonomous systems. However, the us...
— Dedicated infrastructures for end-to-end measurements are complex to deploy and manage. Equipment cost, the requirements for reporting bandwidth, and the administrative diversi...
—To provide flexibility in deploying new protocols and services, general-purpose processing engines are being placed in the datapath of routers. Such network processors are typi...
