— For wireless cellular and ad hoc networks with QoS constraints, we propose a suite of problem formulations that allocate network resources to optimize SIR, maximize throughput ...

Abstract-- We propose a framework for decentralized path selection and on-demand wavelength channel provisioning in WDM networks with routing constraints. Within this framework, th...
Abstract—Routing with service restorability is of much importance in Multi-Protocol Label Switched (MPLS) networks, and is a necessity in optical networks. For restoration, each ...
This paper sketches the design, and presents a scalability analysis and evaluation of NLS, a scalable naming and location service. NLS resolves textual names to the nearest of a s...
This paper concerns itself with the performance of deflection routing in optical burst-switched networks based on Just-Enough-Time (JET) signaling. Generally speaking, buffer requi...
—A Virtual Private Network (VPN) aims to emulate the services provided by a private network over the shared Internet. The endpoints of e connected using abstractions such as Virt...
—This paper describes a mechanism allowing nodes to hand-off active connections by utilizing connection splicing at an edge-switch serving as a gateway to a server cluster. The m...
— Many ad hoc routing protocols are based on (some variant of) flooding. Despite various optimizations, many routing messages are propagated unnecessarily. We propose a gossipin...
We demonstrate how to apply Coupling from the Past, a simulation technique for exact sampling, to Markov chains based on TCP variants. This approach provides a new, statistically ...
— High-aggregate bandwidth switches are those whose port count multiplied by the operating line rate is very high; for example, a 30 port switch operating at 40 Gbps or a 1000 po...
