As computing breaches petascale limits both in processor performance and storage capacity, the only way that current and future gains in performance can be achieved is by increasi...
The study presented in this paper is motivated by the performance analysis of response times in distributed information systems, where transactions are handled by iterative server...

The process number is the minimum number of requests that have to be simultaneously disturbed during a routing reconfiguration phase of a connection oriented network. From a graph ...
In a sensor network the sensors, or nodes, obtain data and have to communicate these data to a central node. Because sensors are battery powered they are highly energy constrained....
