We propose a novel work partitioning technique, Image Layer Decomposition (ILD), designed specifically to support distributed real-time rendering on commodity clusters. ILD has s...
With standard assumptions the routing and wavelength assignment problem (RWA) can be viewed as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). The problem, however, defies an exact solution bec...
A new medium access control (MAC) protocol for mobile wireless communications is presented and investigated. We explore, via an extensive simulation study, the performance of the ...
Distributed application programmers rely on middleware such as CORBA in order to handle the complexity that arises from the distributed and heterogeneous nature of the underlying ...
In implementations of non-standard database systems, large objects are often embedded within an aggregate of different types, i.e. a tuple. For a given size and access probabilit...
