Popular videos are often clicked by a mount of users in a short period. With content recommendation, the popular contents could be broadcast to the potential users in wireless network, to save huge transmitting resource. In this paper, the…
There is a trend toward the use of predictive systems in communications networks. At the systems and network management level predictive capabilities are focused on anticipating network faults and performance degradation. Simultaneously,…
The traditional model of single ownership of all the physical network elements and network layers by mobile network operators is beginning to be challenged. This has been attributed to the rapid and complex technology migration compounded…
Forthcoming wireless communications will be characterized by the ubiquity of multiaccess. Despite the inherently increased complexity, end-users should be able to take advantage of the most suitable access network. Thus, access selection in…
In large wireless networks, acquiring full network state information is typically infeasible. Hence, nodes need to flow the information and manage the interference based on partial information about the network. In this paper, we consider…
Due to the increased capabilities of mobile devices and through wireless opportunistic contacts, users can experience new ways to share and retrieve content anywhere and anytime, even in the presence of link intermittency. Due to the…
Mobile technologies are growing significantly in past few years. Many new features and enhancement have implemented in mobile technologies in both software and hardware aspects. Nowadays, cell phones are not just only use for making calls…
Anonymous communication networks are important building blocks for online privacy protection. One approach to achieve anonymity is to relay messages through multiple routers, where each router shuffles messages independently. To achieve…
The peer-to-peer (P2P) economy relies on establishing trust in distributed networked systems, where the reliability of a user is assessed through digital peer-review processes that aggregate ratings into reputation scores. Here we present…
We present a new model for reasoning about the way information is shared among friends in a social network, and the resulting ways in which it spreads. Our model formalizes the intuition that revealing personal information in social…
Social networks and their applications have become extremely popular during the last years, mostly targeting users via the web. However, it has been recently observed an interest to offer social network services to mobile users. Telecom…
The recent emergence of decentralized wireless networks empowers individual entities to own, operate, and offer subscriptionless connectivity services in exchange for monetary compensation. While traditional connectivity providers have…
This paper identifies the factors that have an impact on mobile recommender systems. Recommender systems have become a technology that has been widely used by various online applications in situations where there is an information overload…
Today, smartphone devices are owned by a large portion of the population and have become a very popular platform for accessing the Internet. Smartphones provide the user with immediate access to information and services. However, they can…
We study the evolution of public cooperation on two interdependent networks that are connected by means of a utility function, which determines to what extent payoffs in one network influence the success of players in the other network. We…
Over the years, use of smartphones has come to dominate several areas, improving our lives, offering us convenience, and reshaping our daily work circumstances. Beyond traditional use for communication, they are used for many peripheral…
Location and mobility patterns of individuals are important to environmental planning, societal resilience, public health, and a host of commercial applications. Mining telecommunication traffic and transactions data for such purposes is…
Recommendation systems represent an important tool for news distribution on the Internet. In this work we modify a recently proposed social recommendation model in order to deal with no explicit ratings of users on news. The model consists…
We analyze the benefits of network sharing between telecommunications operators. Sharing is seen as one way to speed the roll out of expensive technologies such as 5G since it allows the service providers to divide the cost of providing…
After upgrading to 5G, a network operator still faces congestion when providing the ubiquitous wireless service to the crowd. To meet users' ever-increasing demand, some other operators (e.g., Fon) have been developing another crowdsourced…
