This article describes how control theory has been used to address the question of how to size the buffers in core Internet routers. Control theory aims to predict whether the net...
An effective method for focusing optimization effort on the most important parts of a design is to examine those elements on the critical path. Traditionally, the critical path is...

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...
It is well known that channel-dependent OFDMA resource assignment algorithms provide a significant performance improvement compared to static (i.e. channelunaware) approaches. Su...
—Increasingly many wireless sensor network deployments are using harvested environmental energy to extend system lifetime. Because the temporal profiles of such energy sources e...
