—In this paper, we propose a communication model of evolution and investigate its information-theoretic bounds. The process of evolution is modeled as the retransmission of infor...
—Network coding has been proposed as a technique that can potentially increase the transport capacity of a wireless network via processing and mixing of data packets at intermedi...

Abstract--We study in this paper a TCP-like linear-increase multiplicative-decrease flow control mechanism. We consider congestion signals that arrive in batches according to a Poi...

The problem of distributed Bayesian estimation is considered in the context of a wireless sensor network. The Bayesian estimation performance is analyzed in terms of the expected F...
State of the art, real-time, rate-adaptive, multimedia applications adjust their transmission rate to match the available network capacity. Unfortunately, this source-based rate-a...
Abstract--Achievable distortion bounds are derived for the cascade of structured families of binary linear channel codes and binary lattice vector quantizers. It is known that for ...
In this paper we analyze the performance of a TCP-like flow control in a lossy environment. The transmission rate in the control scheme that we consider has a linear growth rate;...

With the lack of admission control and resource reservation mechanisms in the Internet, overload situations can only be avoided by having the end systems deploying congestion cont...
High bandwidth requirements in multimedia transmission make the efficient use of limited network resource a challenging task, especially when multiple clients make their requests ...
It has been shown that an agent located at the junction of wired and wireless links can help streaming media systems identify where packet losses occur and therefore maintain prop...
