This paper proposes a new methodology to model the distribution of finite size content to a group of users connected through an overlay network. Our methodology describes the distr...
Stochastic process algebras such as PEPA provide ample support for the component-based construction of models. Tools compute the numerical solution of these models; however, the st...
Most cluster systems used in high performance computing do not allow process relocation at run-time. Finding an allocation that results in minimal completion time is NP-hard and (n...
Improvements at the physical network layer have enabled technologies such as 10 Gigabit Ethernet. Single core end-systems are unable to fully utilise these networks, due to limite...
The CCS (Calculus of Communicating Systems) process algebra is a well-known formal model of synchronization and communication. It is used for the analysis of safety and liveness i...
