Fractional Brownian motion (fBm) emerged as a useful model for self-similar and long-range dependent Internet traffic. Asymptotic, respectively, approximate performance measures ar...
Abstract--We study replication mechanisms that include ReedSolomon type codes as well as network coding in order to improve the probability of successful delivery within a given ti...

People-centric urban sensing is a new paradigm gaining popularity. A main obstacle to its widespread deployment and adoption are the privacy concerns of participating individuals. ...
We propose a distributed mechanism for finding websurfing strategies that is inspired by the StumbleUpon recommendation engine. Each day, a websurfer visits a sequence of websites ...
Abstract--The domain name system (DNS) is critical to Internet functionality. The availability of a domain name refers to its ability to be resolved correctly. We develop a model f...

Long-distance multi-hop wireless networks have been used in recent years to provide connectivity to rural areas. The salient features of such networks include TDMA channel access, ...
Many modern systems exploit data redundancy to improve efficiency. These systems split data into chunks, generate identifiers for each of them, and compare the identifiers among ot...

We develop a general approach for designing scheduling policies for real-time traffic over wireless channels. We extend prior work, which characterizes a real-time flow by its traf...
