Abstract—Provisioning random access functions in peer-topeer on-demand video streaming is challenging, due to not only the asynchronous user interactivity but also the unpredicta...
Abstract— We consider path-based survivable service provisioning in transparent optical networks with the constraints of wavelength continuity and a limited number of add/drop po...
— This paper reverse-engineers backoff-based random-access MAC protocols in ad-hoc networks. We show that the contention resolution algorithm in such protocols is implicitly part...

Abstract— The current approach in web searching, i.e., centralized search engines, rises issues that question their future applicability: 1) coverage and scalability, 2) freshnes...
— In WDM optical networks connection requests can be classified into three different types: Permanent Lightpath Demands (PLDs), Scheduled Lightpath Demands (SLDs), and Random Li...
