— The dynamic composition of systems of networked appliances, or virtual devices, enables users to generate complex strong specific systems. Current prominent MANET-based composi...
We give the first constant factor approximation algorithm for the asymmetric Virtual Private Network (Vpn) problem with arbitrary concave costs. We even show the stronger result, ...
Distributed Virtual Computer (DVC) is a computing environment which simplifies the development and execution of distributed applications on computational grids. DVC provides a sim...
Some of the currently best-known approximation algorithms for network design are based on random sampling. One of the key steps of such algorithms is connecting a set of source nod...
Currently, there is a strong effort of the research community in rethinking the Internet architecture to cope with its current limitations and support new requirements. Many resea...
