A Reliable Multicast Protocol for Distributed Mobile Systems: Design and Evaluation
Authors: Giuseppe Anastasi, Alberto Bartoli, Francesco Spadoni
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (2001)

Reliable multicast is a powerful communication primitive for structuring distributed programs in which multiple processes must closely cooperate together. In this paper, we propose a protocol for supporting reliable multicast in a distributed system that includes mobile hosts and evaluate the performance of our proposal through simulation. We consider a scenario in which mobile hosts communicate with a wired infrastructure by means of wireless technology. Our proposal provides several novel features. The sender of each multicast may select among three increasingly strong delivery ordering guarantees: FIFO, Causal, Total. Movements do not trigger the transmission of any message in the wired network as no notion of hand-off is used. The set of senders and receivers (group) may be dynamic. The size of data structures at mobile hosts, the size of message headers, and the number of messages in the wired network for each multicast are all independent of the number of group members. The wireless network is assumed to provide only incomplete spatial coverage and message losses could occur even within cells. Movements are not negotiated and a mobile host that leaves a cell may enter any other cell, perhaps after a potentially long disconnection. The simulation results show that the proposed protocol has good performance and good scalability properties.
On the Pattern Recognition of Noisy Subsequence Trees
Authors: B. John Oommen, Richard K.S. Loke
Venue: IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence (2001)

In this paper, we consider the problem of recognizing ordered labeled trees by processing their noisy subsequence-trees which are &ldquo;patched-up&rdquo; noisy portions of their fragments. We assume that we are given H, a finite dictionary of ordered labeled trees. $\rm X^*$ is an unknown element of H, and U is any arbitrary subsequence-tree of $\rm X^*$. We consider the problem of estimating $\rm X^*$ by processing Y, which is a noisy version of U. The solution which we present is, to our knowledge, the first reported solution to the problem. We solve the problem by sequentially comparing Y with every element X of H, the basis of comparison being a new dissimilarity measure between two trees, which implicitly captures the properties of the corrupting mechanism (&ldquo;channel&rdquo;) which noisily garbles U into Y. The algorithm which incorporates this constraint has been used to test our pattern recognition system yielding a remarkable accuracy. Experimental results which involve manually constructed trees of sizes between 25 and 35 nodes, and which contain an average of 21.8 errors per tree demonstrate that the scheme has about 92.8 percent accuracy. Similar experiments for randomly generated trees yielded an accuracy of 86.4 percent.
Instruction scheduling for clustered VLIW architectures
Authors: Jesús Sánchez, Antonio González
Venue: Proceedings of the 13th international symposium on System synthesis (2000)

Clustered VLIW organizations are nowadays a common trend in the design of embedded/DSP processors. In this work we propose a novel modulo scheduling approach for such architectures. The proposed technique performs the cluster assignment and the instruction scheduling in a single pass, which is more effective than doing first the assignment and latter the scheduling. We also show that loop unrolling significantly enhances the performance of the proposed scheduler, especially when the communication channel among clusters is the main performance bottleneck. By selectively unrolling some loops, we can obtain the best performance with the minimum increase in code size. Performance evaluation for the SPECfp95 shows that the clustered architecture achieves about the same IPC (Instructions Per Cycle) as a unified architecture with the same resources. Moreover, when the cycle time is taken into account, a 4-cluster configuration is 3.6 times faster than the unified architecture.

Quasi-random numbers and their applications: using lattice rules for variance reduction in simulation
Authors: Christiane Lemieux, Pierre L'Ecuyer
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

Quasi-Monte Carlo methods are designed to improve upon the Monte Carlo method for multidimensional numerical integration by using a more regularly distributed point set than the i.i.d. sample associated with Monte Carlo. Lattice rules are one family of quasi-Monte Carlo methods, originally proposed by Korobov in 1959. In this paper, we explain how randomized lattice rules can be used to construct efficient estimators for typical simulation problems, and we give several numerical examples. We are interested in two main aspects: Studying the variance of these estimators and finding which properties of the lattice rules should be considered when defining a selection criterion to rate and choose them. Our numerical results for three different problems illustrate how this methodology typically improves upon the usual Monte Carlo simulation method.

(MATH) We construct the first pseudo-random generators with logarithmic seed length that convert s bits of hardness into s&Omega;(1) bits of 2-sided pseudo-randomness for any s}. This improves [8] and gives a direct proof of the optimal hardness vs. randomness tradeoff in [15]. A key element in our construction is an augmentation of the standard low-degree extension encoding that exploits the field structure of the underlying space in a new way.

End-to-end congestion control for the internet: delays and stability
Authors: Ramesh Johari, David Kim Hong Tan
Venue: IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking (TON) (2001)

Under the assumption that queueing delays will eventually become small relative to propagation delays, we derive stability results for a fluid flow model of end-to-end Internet congestion control. The theoretical results of the paper are intended to be decentralized and locally implemented: each end system needs knowledge only of its own round-trip delay. Criteria for local stability and rate of convergence are completely characterized for a single resource, single user system. Stability criteria are also described for networks where all users share the same round-trip delay. Numerical experiments investigate extensions to more general networks. Through simulations, we are able to evaluate the relative importance of queueing delays and propagation delays on network stability. Finally, we suggest how these results may be used to design network resources.
Wrapping-oriented classification of web pages
Authors: Valter Crescenzi, Giansalvatore Mecca, Paolo Merialdo
Venue: Proceedings of the 2002 ACM symposium on Applied computing (2002)

Data extraction from HTML Web pages is performed by software programs called wrapper. Writing wrappers is a costly and labor intensive task; recently several proposal have attacked the problem of automatically generating wrappers. In this paper, we study a problem related to the automation of the wrapping generation process: given a portion of a Web site to wrap, we develop techniques to cluster its HTML pages into page classes with homogeneous organization and layout; these classes can become the input to the wrapper generation process. Also, once a wrapper library has been generated for a bunch of Web sites, our techniques can be used in order to select, for any new page downloaded from these site, the right wrapper in the library. Based on the proposed techniques we have developed a software prototype, and conducted several experiments on HTML pages from real-life Web sites.

Simulation of logistics systems: simulation model for shipment of waste to the waste isolation pilot plant
Authors: Cathy J. Barnard, David H. Van Haaften
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

The United States Department of Energy has agreed to ship 15,000 drums of cold war legacy waste from the Idaho National Engineering and Environmental Laboratory (INEEL) to the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP). This waste must undergo characterization and certification prior to shipment. The processes required to characterize and certify waste for shipment to WIPP are extremely complex. A simulation model was developed to analyze drum throughput in these various processes. Inputs to the model include process start and stop dates, machine upgrade dates, process times, and process rejection rates. Outputs include machine utilization, buffer storage statistics, truckloads shipped per month, drums shipped per month, and drum inventory by facility. The simulation model continues to facilitate the INEEL strategic and tactical planning needed to accomplish the agreement within the required time frame.

Hacker Crackdown: Law and Disorder on the Electronic Frontier
Authors: Bruce Sterling
Venue:  (1993)

:The AT&T long-distance network crashes, and millions of calls go unanswered. A computer hacker reprograms a switching station, and calls to a Florida probation office are shunted to a New York phone-sex hotline. An underground computer bulletin board publishes a pilfered BellSouth document on the 911 emergency system, making it available to anyone who dials up. How did so much illicit power reach the hands of an undisciplined few - and what should be done about it? You are about to descend into a strange netherworld - one that sprang into existence when computers were first connected to telephones. This place has no physical location; it exists only in the networks that bind together its population. Like any frontier, it is home to a wide range of personalities, from legitimate computer professionals to those known only by their noms de net; denizens like Knight Lightning, Leftist, Compu-Phreak, Major Havoc, and Silver Spy; groups like the Lords of Chaos, Phantom Access Associates, Shadow Brotherhood, and the Coalition of Hi-Tech Pirates. This is not normal space, but "cyberspace." And if you use a computer, cyberspace is moving inexorably closer to you with each passing day. Your guide on this journey is bestselling science fiction author and longtime computer user Bruce Sterling, who was galvanized into action following the massive "hacker crackdowns" of 1990, in which law enforcement officers executed search warrants across the country against lawbreakers - and suspected lawbreakers - in the computer underground.
