Abstract. The IEEE 802.11 MAC layer is known for its unfairness behavior in ad hoc networks. Introducing fairness in the 802.11 MAC protocol may lead to a global throughput decreas...
Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs) technology has emerged as a promising candidate for next-generation broadband access networks. As this technology evolves, the developmen...
Fairness is an important management issue for peer-to-peer file sharing systems. In this paper, we study the credit system of the P2P file sharing network eMule (http://www.emule-p...
—Economies of scale make IEEE 802.11 an attractive technology for building wireless mesh networks (WMNs). However, the IEEE 802.11 protocol exhibits serious link-layer unfairness...

In this paper we build upon the recent observation that the 802.11 rate region is log-convex and, for the first time, characterise max-min fair rate allocations for a large class o...
