— Both broadcast encryption (BE) protocols and multicast key distribution (MKD) protocols try to solve the same problem of private group communication. For the first time, we dis...
We analyze the maximum throughput that the known classes of reliable multicast protocols can attain. A new taxonomy of reliable multicast protocols is introduced based on the prem...
Tag identification is an important tool in RFID systems with applications for monitoring and tracking. A RFID reader recognizes tags through communication over a shared wireless c...
Netconf is a protocol proposed by the IETF that defines a set of operations for network configuration. One of the main issues of Netconf is to define operations such as validate...
— This paper describes the design and implementation of a novel reliable multicast protocol, totally reliable and scalable to large number of receivers. MAF relies on Active Netw...
