Network function virtualization (NFV) has been considered as a promising technology for
future Internet to increase the network flexibility, accelerate the service innovation, and …

An approach to off-line signature verification, one with an on-line flavor, is described. A
sequence of data is obtained by tracing the exterior contour of the signature which allows …

ACM Sigcomm 2006 published a paper [26] which was perceived to unify the deterministic
and stochastic branches of the network calculus (abbreviated throughout as DNC and …
