In recent years service curves have proven a powerful and versatile model for performance
analysis of network elements, such as schedulers, links, and traffic shapers, up to entire …

Node deployment is a fundamental issue to be solved in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs).
A proper node deployment scheme can reduce the complexity of problems in WSNs as, for …

Network calculus has proven as a valuable and versatile methodology for worst-case
analysis of communication networks. One issue in which it is still lacking is the treatment of …

In this paper, we present the Disco Deterministic Network Calculator v2--our continuation in
the effort to provide open-source tool support for worst-case performance analysis. The …

Network calculus offers powerful tools to analyze the performances in communication
networks, in particular to obtain deterministic bounds. This theory is based on a strong …

Network Calculus theory aims at evaluating worst-case performances in communication
networks. It provides methods to analyze models where the traffic and the services are …

This report is a survey about service curves used in envelope-based models for worst-case
performance evaluation, like Network Calculus or Real-Time Calculus. In a first part, we …

Network Calculus is an established analytical framework which can provide deterministic
estimates of latency and buffer requirements for feed-forward packet-switched …

Bounding performance characteristics in communication networks is an important and
interesting issue. In this study we assume uncertainty about the way different flows in a …
