Among the novelties introduced by 5G networks, the formalization of thenetwork slice'as a
resource allocation unit is an important one. In legacy networks, resources such as link …

Fair allocation has been studied intensively in both economics and computer science. This
subject has aroused renewed interest with the advent of virtualization and cloud computing …

Drone-based aerial thermography has become a convenient quality assessment tool for the
precise localization of defective modules and cells in large photovoltaic-power plants …

The overhead of a context switch is typically associated with multitasking, where several
applications share a processor. But even if only one runnable application is present in the …

The use of superpeers has been proposed to improve the performance of both structured
and unstructured peer-to-peer (P2P) networks. In this paper, we study the performance of …

We model the network slice provisioning as an optimization problem including novel
mapping and provisioning requirements rising with new radio and core function placement …

We describe a “cheat” attack, allowing an ordinary process to hijack any desirable
percentage of the CPU cycles without requiring superuser/administrator privileges …

Abstract McCabe's Cyclomatic Complexity (MCC) is a widely used metric for the complexity
of control flow. Common usage decrees that functions should not have an MCC above 50 …

The use of Non-Distributed Operating Systems is very common and old. Many researchers
feel that this field of research is outmoded, and therefore put their efforts into Distributed …

It is commonly agreed that scheduling mechanisms in general purpose operating systems
do not provide adequate support for modern interactive applications, notably multimedia …
