A class of Markov stochastic processes xt , suitable as models for random traffic in connecting networks with blocked calls cleared, is described and analyzed.

This paper is concerned with a bivariate Markov Process {X sub t, N sub {t}; t >= 0} with a special structure.

In this paper we analyze a model of a regular tree loss network that supports two types of calls -- unicast calls that require unit capacity on a single link, and multicast calls that require unit

A hierachical view of fault-tolerant distributed computers is presented, viewing a distributed computing system as composed of interconnected, interacting, functional modules.

In packet-switched communication networks information generation is bursty, resulting in traffic at multiplexers, switches and transmission channels which fluctuates randomly, often with a high cor

Motivated by an application in wireless random-access networks, we study a class of polling systems with Markovian routing, in which the server visits the queues in an order governed by a discrete-

A method for optimizing the electron optics of the SCALPEL exposure tool is described. The method uses the SCALPEL mark detection method with a grating mark as an aerial image monitor.

All appropriate organizational approvals for the publication of this paper have been obtained.

According to the Mars Express mission , the MARSIS primary scientific objectives are to map the distribution of water, both liquid and solid, in the upper portions of the crust of Mars.

MARS is an exploratory project within Lab 1138. It is a hardware accelerator capable of efficiently implementing a wide range of event driven simulation algorithms.
