—The availability of optical network infrastructure and appropriate user control software has recently made it possible for scientists to establish end-to-end circuits across mul...
Most of the existing medium access control (MAC) protocols for wireless local area networks (WLANs) provide prioritized access by adjusting the contention window sizes or interfram...
Directed acyclic graphs (dags) are often used to model circuits. Path lengths in such dags represent circuit delays. In the vertex splitting problem, the objective is to determine...
Web caching is an important technique for reducing Internet access latency, network traffic, and server load. This paper investigates cache management strategies for en-route web ...
Traditional GISystems are no longer appropriate for modern distributed, heterogeneous network environments due to their closed architecture, and their lack of interoperability, reu...
