—The back-pressure algorithm is a well-known throughput-optimal algorithm. However, its delay performance may be quite poor even when the traffic load is not close to network ca...
Enterprise capable database products have evolved into incredibly complex systems, some of which present hundreds of configuration parameters to the system administrator. So, whil...
As long as computers continue to get more CPU processing power, data centers need to optimize their power usage. We can do this and maintain the same complexity level as before by...
Abstract. Invariants that incrementally maintain the value of expresder assignments to their variables are a natural abstraction to build high-level local search algorithms. But th...
The coverage problem is of great interest for many sensor network applications, for example, detection of intruders in the sensor field. Topological changes in sensor networks ma...
