– In this paper, we propose a new transport protocol, namely Scalable Streaming Video Protocol (SSVP), which employs an AIMD-oriented congestion control mechanism. SSVP, in a com...
— We consider the problem of distributing a content of finite size to a group of users connected through an overlay network that is built by a peer-to-peer application. The goal...
In this letter we develop an expression for the approximate throughput guarantee violation probability (TGVP) for users in time-slotted networks for any scheduling algorithm with ...
— We consider a ring topology with limited or full switching capability as deployed in high bandwidth metro optical networks and develop a model to estimate the probability of bl...
— In this paper we investigate which is the most efficient architecture and protocol that can be used for file distribution. The focus of the analysis is to understand not only...
Abstract— As stateful flow-aware services are becoming commonplace, distributed router architectures have to quickly assign packets being forwarded to service-specialized proces...
— As Internet computing gains speed, complexity and becomes ubiquitous, the need for precise and accurate time synchronization increases. In this paper, we present a characteriza...
