In the future Internet, different applications such as Voice over IP (VoIP) and Video-on-Demand (VoD) arise with different demands on Quality of Service (QoS). Different kinds of service classes (e.g. gold, silver, bronze) should be supported in a network node. In the network node, packets are queued using a multiqueue system, where each queue corresponds to one service class. The customers of ...

Memory consolidation benefits from post-training sleep. However, recent studies suggest that sleep does not uniformly benefit all memory, but instead prioritizes information that is important to the individual. Here, we examined the effect of test expectation on memory consolidation across sleep and wakefulness. Following reports that information with strong "future relevance" is preferentially...

This paper considers multiple regression model with multivariate spherically symmetric errors to determine optimal β-expectation tolerance regions for the future regression vector (FRV) and future residual sum of squares (FRSS) by using the prediction distributions of some appropriate functions of future responses. The prediction distribution of the FRV, conditional on the observed responses, i...
