Fair queueing has long been a popular paradigm for providing bounded delay channel access and separation between ows in wireline networks. However, adapting fair queueing to the wireless domain is non-trivial because of the unique problems in wireless channels such as location-dependent and bursty channel error. In this article, we identify the key issues in wireless fair queueing, deene a wire...

Proportional Fair (PF), a frequently used scheduling algorithm in 3G wireless networks, can unnecessarily starve “well-behaved” users in practice. One of the main causes behind PF-induced starvation is its inability to distinguish between users who are backlogged and users who are not. In this paper, we describe how a simple parallel PF instance can mitigate such starvation.

The paper proposes a surprisingly simple characterization of a large class of models of distributed computing, via an agreement function: for each set of processes, the function determines the best level of set consensus these processes can reach. We show that the task computability of a large class of fair adversaries that includes, in particular superset-closed and symmetric one, is precisely...

Objective: By the full adoption of IFRS, measurement and disclosure of fair values become more common in Iranian financial reporting. The present study aims to identify the technical challenges of fair value measurement and disclosure in accordance with the proposed framework in IFRS13 as well as technical factors underlying resistance to fair-value based financial reporting from accounting and...

ABSTRACT Metadata, data about other digital objects, play an important role in FAIR with a direct relation to all principles. In this paper we present and discuss the Data Point (FDP), software architecture aiming define common approach publish semantically-rich machine-actionable metadata according We core components features of FDP, its provision, criteria evaluate whether application adheres...
