(1994-06-01)An approach is developed to maximize the bandwidth utilization of a network for continually transmitting sources, such as video sources. We assume that the sources use hierarchical encoding and can adapt their source coding ...
-
(1994-03-01)The paper identifies the design issues that must be considered when interconnecting IEEE 802 LANs through either DQDB or FDDI backbone subnetworks using MAC bridges. A series of simulation results are presented that compare ...
-
(1999-12-01)An analysis of the distributed shared memory (DSM) work carried out by other researchers shows that it has been able to improve the performance of applications, at the expense of ease of programming and use. Many implementations ...
-
(1999-03-01)Dynamic documents constitute an increasing percentage of contents on the Web, and caching dynamic documents becomes an increasingly important issue that affects the scalability of the Web. In this paper, we propose the ...
-
(1994-12-01)An algorithm to dynamically reallocate the database files in a computer network is presented. The proposed algorithm uses the best fit approach to allocate and delete beneficial file copies. A key problem of economical ...
-
(1994-03-01)This paper examines the window mechanism that has been widely used for flow and congestion control. The analysis shows that the mono-window model, which combines flow control and congestion control in a single window, can ...
-
(1995-12-01)We propose an extended concurrent object model for distributed multiuser systems called the multiversion concurrent object (MCO). The original concurrent object model is simple because it excludes internal concurrency, but ...
-
(1995-06-01)Maintenance of causality information in distributed systems has previously been implemented in the communications infrastructure with the focus on providing reliability and availability for distributed services. While this ...
-
(1999-12-01)In this paper we present an approach to support interoperation between autonomous database systems. In particular, we concentrate on distributed information discovery and access for systems with a large number of databases. ...
-
(1995-09-01)Global information management systems based on the vision of the 'docuverse'-such as the World-Wide Web (WWW)-show that on-line access to vast amounts of distributed information is possible not only for the expert, but ...
-
(1995-12-01)Recording on-the-fly global states of distributed executions is an important paradigm when one is interested in analysing, testing, or verifying properties associated with these executions. Since Chandy and Lamport`s (1985) ...
-
(1994-09-01)Developing extensible, robust and efficient distributed systems is a complex task. To help alleviate this complexity, we have developed the ADAPTIVE Service eXecutive (ASX) framework. ASX is an object-oriented framework ...
-
(1994-12-01)In the personal computing and workstation environments, more and more I/O adapters are becoming complete functional subsystems that are intelligent enough to handle I/O operations on their own without much intervention ...
-
(1994-06-01)Atomic broadcast ensures that concurrent updates to replicated data maintained by a process group are consistently delivered to all group members despite random communication delays and failures. By simplifying the programming ...
-
(1999-03-01)To alleviate scalability problems in the Web, many researchers concentrate on how to incorporate advanced caching and replication techniques. Many solutions incorporate object-based techniques. In particular, Web resources ...
-
(1996-12-01)A workflow management system (WFMS) employs a workflow manager (WM) to execute and automate the various activities within a workflow. To protect the consistency of data, the WM encapsulates each activity with a transaction; ...
-
(1998-09-01)The MASSIVE-1 and MASSIVE-2 distributed virtual environment systems are based on an explicit model of user communication requirements known as the spatial model of interaction; this model addresses the general issue of ...
-
(1998-12-01)This paper presents experience gathered through the implementation of a CORBA-based localization system for an office environment. The localization system simultaneously preserves the fine-grained object-oriented structure ...
-
(1994-03-01)ESPRIT Networks of Excellence are Europe-wide communities of interest in key areas of IT research. CaberNet is the Network of Excellence in distributed systems architectures. It brings together a number of internationally-ranked ...
-
(1998-03-01)We introduce a new scheduling algorithm for multimedia traffic using capacity reservation. We compare it with other algorithms in the literature. It has been implemented and its worst-case performance has been analysed. ...
