Multiple complex pathways, characterized by interrelated events and c-ditions, represent
routes to many illnesses, diseases, and ultimately death. Although there are substantial data …

Buffered crossbars have been considered as an alternative for non-buffered crossbars to
improve switching throughput. The drawback of a buffered crossbar is the memory amount …

With increased number of new services and users being added to the communication
network, management of such networks becomes crucial to provide assured quality of …

We present a toolbox for the combined functional and quantitative analysis of discrete event
dynamic systems (DEDS) on the basis of a common model interchange format, the Abstract …

Covering both the theoretical and practical aspects of fault-tolerant mobile systems, and fault
tolerance and analysis, this book tackles the current issues of reliability-based optimization …

We propose a novel architecture, a combined input-crosspoint-output buffered (CIXOB-k,
where k is the size of the crosspoint buffer) Switch. CIXOB-k architecture provides 100 …

To support the Internet's growth, there is a need for cost effective switching technologies that
can simultaneously provide high capacity switching and advanced QoS. Unfortunately …

The demands for deterministic network services are getting significant. IEEE Time sensitive
networking (TSN) task group has aimed for deterministic services through IEEE 802 …

Today's Internet provides one simple service: best effort datagrarn delivery. This minimalist
service allows the Internet to be stateless, that is, routers do not need to maintain any fine …

While the Internet has quietly served as a research and education vehicle for more than two
decades, the last few years have witnessed its tremendous growth and its great potential for …
