To improve the performance of the network and the network protocol it is important to characterize the dominant applications [4, 8, 9, 12, 19, 22, 23]. Only by utilizing data about all events initiated by the Web (including TCP and HTTP events) can one hope to understand the chain of performance problems that current Web users face. Due the the popularity of the Web it is crucial to understand ...

due to some difficulties during seismic data acquisition, like natural obstacles (high voltage electricity cable, bad coupling of geophones with the ground) some of the traces cannot be recorded. since bad traces make the final stack unclear, usually bad traces go mute while processing. the final image of the earth’s crust is highly dependent of the quality and resolution of acquired data and m...

With the emerging concept of model transformation, information can be extracted from one or more source models to produce the target models. The conversion of these models can be done automatically with specific transformation languages. This conversion requires mapping between both models with the help of dynamic hash tables. Hash tables store reference links between the elements of the source...

High bandwidth network traffic traces are needed to understand the behavior of high speed networks (such as the Internet backbone). However, the implementation of a mechanism to collect such traces is difficult in practice. In the absence of real traces, tools to generate high bandwidth traces would aid the study of high speed network behavior. We describe three methods of generating high bandw...

Some people suffering from diabetes use insulin injection pumps to control the blood glucose level. Sometimes, the fault may occur in the sensor or actuator of these pumps. The main objective of this paper is controlling the blood glucose level at the desired level and fault-tolerant control of these injection pumps. To this end, the eligibility traces algorithm is combined with the sliding mod...
