Abstract. MPNT (Multicast Proxies NeTwork) is an overlay architecture that was first conceived to provide multicast access to unicast-only users, like TutTelNet distant students. ...
Abstract. In distributed streaming media server clusters, by adopting cooperative caching (CC) technique, the free memory of all the servers can be combined to form a bigger, logic...
This paper presents an improved version of a simple evolution strategy (SES) to solve global nonlinear optimization problems. As its previous version, the approach does not require...
We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
Structured peer-to-peer (p2p) overlay networks provide a decentralized, self-organizing substrate for distributed applicad support powerful abstractions such as distributed hash t...
