—We consider network reliability in layered networks where the lower layer experiences random link failures. In layered networks, each failure at the lower layer may lead to mult...
When failures occur in Internet overlay connections today, it is difficult for users to determine the root cause of failure. An overlay connection may require TCP connections bet...
Networked computing systems continue to grow in scale and in the complexity of their components and interactions. Component failures become norms instead of exceptions in these en...
—This paper presents a scheme in which a dedicated backup network is designed to provide protection from random link failures. Upon a link failure in the primary network, traffi...
This paper addresses the additional energy consumption in wireless sensor networks where the communication between the sensor nodes and the sink nodes does not always make use of ...
