Network applications require a certain level of network performance for their proper operation. These individual guarantees can be provided if su cient amounts of network resource...
In a recent study, we have shown that in real-time database systems that discard late transactions, optimistic concurrency control outperforms locking. Although the optimistic alg...
Abstract-- Topology control is the problem of assigning power levels to the nodes of an ad hoc network so as to maintain a specified network topology while minimizing energy consum...
This paper revisits a well-known synthesis problem in iterative learning control, where the objective is to optimize a performance criterion over a class of causal iterations. The...
In this work, a systematic approach to plant-wide control design is proposed. The method combines ingredients from process networks, thermodynamics and systems theory to derive ro...
