In this paper, we propose using the network-attached disk (NAD) architecture to design highly scalable and cost-effective multimedia-on-demand (MOD) servers. In order to ensure en...
—To harness the ever growing capacity and decreasing cost of storage, providing an abstraction of dependable storage in the presence of crash-stop and Byzantine failures is compu...
Self-healing gradients are distributed estimates of the distance from each device in a network to the nearest device designated as a source, and are used in many pervasive computi...
Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANETs) are composed of a set of communicating devices which are able to spontaneously interconnect without any pre-existing infrastructure. In such scenar...
In recent years, several architectures have been proposed and developed for supporting streaming applications that take advantage of multiple paths through the network simultaneou...
