whitepaper A Practical Approach to Solving Performance Problems With SAS2007-12-12 SAS Institute
  Software performance issues occasionally arise in new implementation testing for SAS software solutions, or in deployed solutions and applications. There is a wide array of contributors to system performance, from application code, data models and process design, to hardware and network architecture and configuration. Given the intricate interaction of these elements how does one diagnose underlying performance problem causes and determine effective solutions? This paper will suggest a stepwise method using measurement tools to diagnose performance problems involving SAS, steps to correct them, and how to take preventative measures against problems in new and existing systems.

whitepaper Fuzzy Logic Control Based QoS Management in Wireless Sensor/Actuator Networks2007-12-06 Molecular Diversity Preservation International (MDPI)
  Wireless Sensor/Actuator Networks (WSANs) are emerging rapidly as a new generation of sensor networks. Despite intensive research in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), limited work has been found in the open literature in the field of WSANs. In particular, Quality-of-Service (QoS) management in WSANs remains an important issue yet to be investigated. As an attempt in this direction, this paper develops a fuzzy logic control based QoS management (FLC-QM) scheme for WSANs with constrained resources and in dynamic and unpredictable environments. Taking advantage of the feedback control technology, this scheme deals with the impact of unpredictable changes in traffic load on the QoS of WSANs.

whitepaper Reverse Hashing for High-Speed Network Monitoring: Algorithms, Evaluation, and Applications2007-12-01 Northwestern University
  A key function for network traffic monitoring and analysis is the ability to perform aggregate queries over multiple data streams. Change detection is an important primitive which can be extended to construct many aggregate queries. The recently proposed sketches are among the very few that can detect heavy changes online for high speed links, and thus support various aggregate queries in both temporal and spatial domains. However, it does not preserve the keys (e.g., source IP address) of flows, making it difficult to reconstruct the desired set of anomalous keys. In an earlier abstract the authors proposed a framework for a reversible sketch data structure that offers hope for efficient extraction of keys.
