— In this paper, a scheduling problem in wireless networks is considered when there simultaneously exist CBR (constant bit rate) users requiring exact minimum average throughput ...
Prefetching in shared-memory multiprocessor systems is an increasingly difficult problem. As system designs grow to incorporate larger numbers of faster processors, memory latency...
Single sign-on is critical for the usability of distributed systems. While there are several authentication mechanisms which support single sign-on (e.g. Kerberos and X.509), it m...
A multimedia system utilizes a set of correlated media streams each of which partially help in achieving the system goal. However, since not all of the streams always contribute t...
