Abstract. We present a trust model extension that attempts to relax the assumptions that are currently taken by the majority of existing trust models: (i) proven identity of agents...
The dominant eigenvector of matrices defined by weighted links in overlay networks plays an important role in many peer-to-peer applications. Examples include trust management, im...
The ability to quickly predict the throughput of a TCP transfer between a client and a server, or between peers, has wide application in scientific computing and commercial compu...
Applications that use parallel TCP streams to increase throughput must multiplex and demultiplex data blocks over a set of TCP streams transmitting on one or more network paths. W...
Abstract -- In this paper, we study the provision of perclass QoS for IEEE 802.11e Enhanced Distributed Channel Access (EDCA) WLANs. We propose two mechanisms, called BIWF-SP and I...
