We consider the problem of efficient link-layer multicasting in wireless networks with switched beamforming antennas. The inherent tradeoff between multicasting and beamforming ...
Heterogeneous distributed environments or grid environments provide large computing resources for the execution of large scientific applications. The effective use of those plat...
A new model of nonuniform traffic is introduced for a single-hop packet-switching system. This traffic model allows arbitrary traffic streams subject only to a constraint on the nu...
In the past decade, energy-efficiency has been an important system design issue in both hardware and software managements. For mobile applications with critical missions, both ene...
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
