Multi-Level Decomposition Of Probabilistic Relations, Stanislaw Grygiel, Martin Zwick, Marek Perkowski Dec 2002

Multi-Level Decomposition Of Probabilistic Relations, Stanislaw Grygiel, Martin Zwick, Marek Perkowski

Complex Systems Faculty Publications and Presentations

Two methods of decomposition of probabilistic relations are presented in this paper. They consist of splitting relations (blocks) into pairs of smaller blocks related to each other by new variables generated in such a way so as to minimize a cost function which depends on the size and structure of the result. The decomposition is repeated iteratively until a stopping criterion is met. Topology and contents of the resulting structure develop dynamically in the decomposition process and reflect relationships hidden in the data.


Load Balancing And Congestion Avoidance Routing, Konstantinos N. Kokkinos Dec 2002

Load Balancing And Congestion Avoidance Routing, Konstantinos N. Kokkinos

Dissertations

Today’s high speed backbone networks are expected to support a wide range of communication-intensive applications. One of the most important issues in Quality of Service (QoS) is efficient routing. Many QoS routing solutions have been published lately for different criteria of QoS requirements and resource constraints. In this dissertation we focus on the design of regular network topologies and suggest efficient routing schemes to reduce the probability of hot spot creation in the network. Furthermore, we provide a detection of congestion mechanism that reroutes traffic to maintain balancing with small communication cost. Several theoretical results relatively to network traffic balancing …


Thread Transparency In Information Flow Middleware, Rainer Koster, Andrew P. Black, Jie Huang, Jonathan Walpole, Calton Pu Jan 2002

Thread Transparency In Information Flow Middleware, Rainer Koster, Andrew P. Black, Jie Huang, Jonathan Walpole, Calton Pu

Computer Science Faculty Publications and Presentations

Existing middleware is based on control-flow centric interaction models such as remote method invocations, poorly matching the structure of applications that process continuous information flows. Difficulties cultiesin building this kind of application on conventional platforms include flow-specific concurrency and timing requirements, necessitating explicit management of threads, synchronization, and timing by the application programmer. We propose Infopipes as a high-level abstraction for information flows, and we are developing a middleware framework that supports this abstraction. Infopipes transparently handle complexities associated with control flow and multi-threading. From high-level configuration descriptions the platform determines what parts of a pipeline require separate threads or …


Issues In Implementing Ipv6 In The X-Kernel Simulator, Raja Singam Thillainathan Jan 2002

Issues In Implementing Ipv6 In The X-Kernel Simulator, Raja Singam Thillainathan

Student Works (2000-2009)

The new Internet Protocol Version 6(IPv6) or Internet Protocol Next Generation (TPNG) is bound to replace the existing Internet Protocol Version 4(TPv4). This new protocol is to address and resolve the limitations of the existing Internet Protocols. At the moment the new protocol is still in its infancy stage, and it is being implemented by both the research society and the private sector. The x-kernel being a research project done by University of Arizona is freely available on the Internet. This x-kemel is a networking software almost similar to the Berkeley version (BSD) and it is bundled together with a …
