Resilient Packet Ring (RPR) is a new networking standard developed by the IEEE LAN/MAN working group. RPR is an insertion buffer, dual ring technology, utilizing a back pressure b...
ESCORT aims at decreasing the energy cost of communication in dense sensor networks. We employ radio frequency (RF) signal quality assessment in forming communities of redundant no...

Abstract. This paper presents a stable accurate rapid bandwidth estimate (SARBE) algorithm to improve TCP performance over wireless networks. The proposed algorithm estimates the b...
Abstract. Network security problems have been well known and addressed in the application, transport, or network layers. However, the Data Link Layer (Layer 2) security has not bee...

In cellular networks, a frame size is generally made small to reduce the impact of errors. Thus, a segment of transport layer is splitted into multiple frames before transmission. ...
In this paper, we propose a novel, cluster-based energy balancing scheme. We assume the existence of a fraction of “strong” nodes in terms of abundant storage, computing and co...
Abstract. For a typical portable handheld device, the backlight accounts for a significant percentage of the total energy consumption (e.g., around 30% for a Compaq iPAQ 3650). Su...
The major concept of the Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) network uses the Label Switch Path (LSP) technique that provides high performance in packet delivery without routing ...
