The purpose of this research was to identify the factors in a wafer fabrication facility that significantly affect the cycle times of two main technologies that are currently in p...
This research examines the performance of CONWIP versus "push" workload control in a simple, balanced manufacturing flowline. Analytical models and simulation experiment...
: A distributed system is scalable if the rate at which it completes its computation and communication tasks does not depend on its size. As an example, the scalability of a peer-t...
Numerous projects have evaluated the performance of CORBA middleware over the past decade. Interestingly, many of the published results are either gathered or analyzed imprecisely...
Abstract. We investigate the computational behaviour of `two-dimensional' propositional temporal logics over (N, <) (with and without the next-time operator ?) that are cap...
