— Data aggregation protocols can reduce the cost of communication, thereby extending the lifetime of sensor networks. Prior work on data aggregation protocols has focused on tree...
Abstract— Client puzzles have been proposed in a number of protocols as a mechanism for mitigating the effects of distributed denial of service (DDoS) attacks. In order to provid...
As a promising solution to tackle the network heterogeneity in multicasting, layered multicast protocols such as Receiver-driven layered multicast (RLM) and Layered video multicas...
We present a combinatorial framework for the study of a natural class of distributed optimization problems that involve decisionmaking by a collection of n distributed agents in th...
Abstract—We investigate optimal resource allocation for delaylimited cooperative communication in time varying wireless networks. Motivated by real-time applications that have st...
