Recently, a server-less video-on-demand architecture has been proposed which can completely eliminate costly dedicated video servers and yet is highly scalable and reliable. Due to...
Wireless sensor networks promise fine-grain monitoring in a wide variety of environments. Many of these environments (e.g., indoor environments or habitats) can be harsh for wire...
— The characteristics of wireless packet loss have been studied extensively. Most efforts focus on the temporal loss characteristics at individual stations. For multicast protoco...
Network self-awareness is the ability of a network to observe its own behavior using internal probing and measurement mechanisms, and to make effective autonomous use of these obs...
— Packet loss and end-to-end delay limit delay sensitive applications over the best effort packet switched networks such as the Internet. In our previous work, we have shown that...
Clusters of commodity machines have become a popular way of building cheap high performance parallel computers. Many of these designs rely on standard Ethernet networks as a syste...

Mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) present quite large packet loss bursts due to mobility. In this work we propose two models based on hidden Markov models for estimating packet arri...

In this paper, we propose a novel active queue management (AQM) scheme based on the Random Early Detection (RED) of the loss ratio and the total sending rate control, called LRC-R...
Packet loss can severely impact streaming video quality. Repair techniques protect streaming video from packet loss but at the price of a reduced effective transmission rate when...
The cost savings and novel features associated with Voice over IP (VoIP) are driving its adoption by service providers. Such a transition however can successfully happen only if t...
