Moving object environments are characterized by large numbers of objects continuously sending location updates. At times, data arrival rates may spike up, causing the load on the system to exceed its capacity. This may result in increased output latencies, potentially leading to invalid or obsolete answers. Dropping data randomly, the most frequently used approach in the literature for load she...

An analytical solution of steady-state dynamic response of a multilayered viscoelastic medium to a moving distributed load is obtained using a novel approach that combines transfer matrix method with Sun’s convolution representation integrated over impulse response function of the layered medium. The layered media under consideration include elastic and viscoelastic media with four different vi...
