In this paper, we present a measurement study of the energy consumption characteristics of three widespread mobile networking technologies: 3G, GSM, and WiFi. We find that 3G and...
Since the last in-depth studies of measured TCP traffic some 68 years ago, the Internet has experienced significant changes, including the rapid deployment of backbone links wit...
We show that currently prevalent practices for network path measurements can produce inaccurate inferences because of sampling biases. The inferred mean path latency can be more t...
Many enterprise, campus, and data-center networks have complex layer-2 virtual LANs (“VLANs”) below the IP layer. The interaction between layer-2 and IP topologies in these VL...
