Abstract— In [1], Gupta and Kumar determined the capacity of wireless networks under certain assumptions, among them point-to-point coding, which excludes for example multi-acces...
—We address the issue of optimal energy allocation and admission control for communications satellites in earth orbit. Such satellites receive requests for transmission as they o...
—In this paper, we introduce a cross-layer design framework to the multiple access problem in contention-based wireless ad hoc networks. The motivation for this study is twofold,...
Abstract— This paper introduces a new packet marking algorithm that can be used in the context of Assured Forwarding (AF) in the Differentiated Services (DiffServ) framework [1],...
In this paper we study the Optical Burst Switching (OBS) paradigm for the support of the TCP flows in an All Optical Network (AON). We analyze the TCP send rate, i.e. the amount of...
—Intelligent mobile terminals (or users) of next generation wireless networks are expected to initiate voice over IP (VoIP) calls using session set-up protocols like H.323 or SIP...
Abstract— An analytical model is developed for cellular networks with a combined adaptive bandwidth allocation and trafficrestriction mechanism. Instead of focusing only on the ...
Abstract—Cache pre-filling is emerging as a new concept for increasing the availability of popular web items in cache servers. According to this concept, web items are sent by a...
— Network survivability is a crucial requirement in high-speed optical networks. Typical approaches of providing survivability have considered the failure of a single component s...
—The majority of the existing ad hoc wireless network routing protocols has a tendency to use the shortest single path from the source to the destination. However, in constantly ...
