Mathematics courses are a major source of engineering student attrition. Many engineering
students drop out before even taking an engineering course. While the mismatch between …

Accurately characterizing end-to-end Internet dynamics is exceptionally difficult, due to the
network's immense heterogeneity. It can be impossible to gauge the generality of findings …

This paper describes a reservation protocol to provide real-time services to mobile users in
an Integrated Services Packet Network. Mobility of hosts has significant impact on the quality …

This paper provides an initial look at how support for advance reservations affects the
complexity of the path selection process in networks. Advance reservations are likely to …

Resource management offers Quality-of-Service reliability for time-critical continuous-media
applications. Currently, existing resource management systems in the Internet and ATM …

The transfer of prerecorded, compressed variable-bit-rate video requires multimedia
services to support large fluctuations in bandwidth requirements on multiple time scales …

Many future applications will require guarantees on network performance, such as bounds
on throughput, delay, delay jitter, and reliability. To address this need, the authors have …

The transfer of prerecorded, compressed video requires multimedia services to support
large fluctuations in bandwidth requirements on multiple time scales. Bandwidth smoothing …

Advance reservation is a useful network service that can not only provide guaranteed
services for real-time applications but also allow networks to better plan their resource …

Resource management offers Quality-of-Service reliability for time-critical continuous-media
applications. Currently existing resource management systems provide only means to …
