This paper reports a study on a single server queue with bulk arrival and bulk service patterns wherein the incoming traffic depends on the state of the server which may be in operating or breakdown state. The repair of the breakdown server is performed in two phases. The operating duration of server, repair duration of both phases of repairing as well as job's inter-arrival times and service t...

The DHCPv6 RADIUS option provides a mechanism to exchange authorization and identification information between the DHCPv6 relay agent and DHCPv6 server. This architecture assumes that the Network Access Server (NAS) acts as both a DHCPv6 relay agent and RADIUS client. When receiving messages from the DHCPv6 clients, the NAS consults the RADIUS server and adds the RADIUS response when forwarding...

In this paper, we present a novel algorithm for VANET using cloud computing. We accomplish processing, routing and traffic control in a centralized and parallel way by adding one or more server to the network. Each car or node is considered a Client, in such a manner that routing, traffic control, getting information from client and data processing and storing are performed by one or more serve...

UNLABELLED The ToolShop server offers a possibility to compare a protein tertiary structure prediction server with other popular servers before releasing it to the public. The comparison is conducted on a set of 203 proteins and the collected models are compared with over 20 other programs using various assessment procedures. The evaluation lasts circa one week. AVAILABILITY The ToolShop serv...

This paper investigates an M [x] /G/1 queueing system with an unreliable server, where the server may take an additional vacation after the essential vacation. If the system becomes empty, the server leaves the system and takes the essential vacation. At the end of the essential vacation, the server may return to the system with probability p or take another vacation with probability 1-p. When ...

This paper considers a single-server retrial queue with constant retrial rate and batch arrivals, where an unreliable server may take an additional optional vacation after the first essential vacation. Customers arrive at the system according to a compound Poisson process, and they are served immediately if the server is available; otherwise, they will enter a retrial orbit and form a single wa...

In this work we recall attention to problems that arise in a client-server setting with server-side rendering and propose a practical method for accelerated high-quality render-stream compression on the server. Server-side rendering is gaining importance for three main reasons: On the one hand great differences in quality and performance of client’s systems (ranging from PDAs to high-end workst...

Accurate and reliable time is necessary for financial and legal transactions, transportation, distribution systems, and many other applications. Time synchronization protocols such as NTP (the Network Time Protocol) have kept clocks of such applications synchronized to each other for many years. Nowadays there are many commercial GPS based NTP time server products at the market but they almost ...
