Characterizing the capacity region of multi-source wireless relay networks is one of the fundamental issues in network information theory. The problem is, however, quite challenging due to inter-user interference when there exist multiple…

We investigate adversarial network coding and decoding focusing on the multishot regime. Errors can occur on a proper subset of the network edges and are modeled via an adversarial channel. The paper contains both bounds and…

We present a capacity-achieving coding scheme for unicast or multicast over lossy packet networks. In the scheme, intermediate nodes perform additional coding yet do not decode nor even wait for a block of packets before sending out coded…

We consider zero-error communication over a two-transmitter deterministic adversarial multiple access channel (MAC) governed by an adversary who has access to the transmissions of both senders (hence called omniscient) and aims to…

In the practical network communications, many internal nodes in the network are required to not only transmit messages but decode source messages. For different applications, four important classes of linear network codes in network coding…

Capacity formulas and random-coding exponents are derived for a generalized family of Gel'fand-Pinsker coding problems. These exponents yield asymptotic upper bounds on the achievable log probability of error. In our model, information is…

We investigate adversarial network coding and decoding, focusing on the multishot regime and when the adversary is restricted to operate on a vulnerable region of the network. Errors can occur on a proper subset of the network edges and are…

Network coding is known to improve the throughput and the resilience to losses in most network scenarios. In a practical network scenario, however, the accurate modeling of the traffic is often too complex and/or infeasible. The goal is…

We consider the problem of characterizing network capacity in the presence of adversarial errors on network links,focusing in particular on the effect of low-capacity feedback links cross network cuts.

In networks, there are often more than one source of capacity. The capacities can be permanently or temporarily owned by the decision maker. Depending on the nature of sources, we identify the permanent capacity, spot market capacity and…

In this work we study zero vs. epsilon-error capacity in network coding instances. For multicast network coding it is well known that all rates that can be delivered with arbitrarily small error probability can also be delivered with zero…

The problem of error correction in both coherent and noncoherent network coding is considered under an adversarial model. For coherent network coding, where knowledge of the network topology and network code is assumed at the source and…

In secure network coding, there is a possibility that the eavesdropper can improve her performance when she changes (contaminates) the information on the attacked edges (active attack) and chooses the attacked edges adaptively (adaptive…
