As a soft-state protocol, RSVP specifies that each RSVP node sends periodic control messages to maintain the state for active RSVP sessions. The protocol overhead due to such periodic messages grows linearly with the number of RSVP sessions. One may reduce the overhead by using a longer refresh period, which unfortunately leads to longer delays in re-synchronizing RSVP state. In this paper we i...

It is shown that the Takagi-Sugeno-Kang (TSK) fuzzy inference mechanism is optimal with respect to a certain criterion that quantiies the controversy between the inference made, and the knowledge represented in the knowledge-base.

In this paper we propose a novel method of dynamic RSVP’s reservations, based on knowledge about the sending stream. The proposed solution is able to assure better link utilization than classis RSVP reservations and offer no worse QoS for HD video transmission than the typical RSVP reservations.

RSVP as a receiver oriented resource reservation setup protocol targeted fo r Integrated Services Packe t Networks ( ISPNs) . RSVP has a number of desireable attributes which make it a leading candidate for Interne t standardization. These attrabutes include jlexzbili ty, robustness, and scalability. However, RSVP does no t adequately address the issue of resource reservation for mobile hosts. ...

This data paper describes a specimens' dataset of the Catalonian threatened vascular plants conserved in five public Catalonian herbaria (BC, BCN, HGI, HBIL and MTTE). Catalonia is an administrative region of Spain that includes large autochthon plants diversity and 199 taxa with IUCN threatened categories (EX, EW, RE, CR, EN and VU). This dataset includes 1,618 records collected from 17th cent...

tellurium (te) nanostructures have been successfully synthesized via a simple hydrothermal methodfrom the reaction of a tecl4 aqueous solution with thioglycolic acid (tga) as a reductant. tga can be easily oxidized to the corresponding disulfide [sch2co2h]2, which in turn can reduce tecl4 to te. the obtained te was characterized by xrd, sem, eds, and drs. the effect of reducing agent on morphol...
