This paper proposes a simple framework for building 'virtual networking agents'; programs that can communicate with users and collect information through the internet. T...
Abstract—In this paper, we present the implementation issues of a virtual backbone that supports the operations of the Uniform Quorum System (UQS) and the Randomized Database Gro...
Distributed system emulators provide a paramount platform for testing of network protocols and distributed applications in clusters and networks of workstations. However, to allow...
A virtual networked environment (VNE) consists of virtual machines (VMs) connected by a virtual network. It has been adopted to create “virtual infrastructures” for individual...
Although the diversity of platforms for network experimentation is a boon to the development of protocols and distributed systems, it is challenging to exploit its benefits. Impl...
