Random Linear Network Coding (RLNC) has emerged as a powerful tool for robust high-throughput multicast. Projection analysis - a recently introduced technique - shows that the distributed packetized RLNC protocol achieves (order) optimal…
Traceroute is a networking tool that allows one to discover the path that packets take from a source machine, through the network, to a destination machine. It is widely used as an engineering tool, and also as a scientific tool, such as…
Recent development of network structure analysis shows that it plays an important role in characterizing complex system of many branches of sciences. Different from previous network centrality measures, this paper proposes the notion of…
In a communication network, point-to-point traffic volumes over time are critical for designing protocols that route information efficiently and for maintaining security, whether at the scale of an internet service provider or within a…
Internet is known to display a highly heterogeneous structure and complex fluctuations in its traffic dynamics. Congestion seems to be an inevitable result of user's behavior coupled to the network dynamics and it effects should be…
This paper proposes a method to quickly and efficiently compute the voltage and current along a transmission line which can be "damaged"; that is its electrical properties can be unevenly distributed. The method approximates a transmission…
Congestion control in the current Internet is accomplished mainly by TCP/IP. To understand the macroscopic network behavior that results from TCP/IP and similar end-to-end protocols, one main analytic technique is to show that the the…
With the wide spread of Internet services, developers and users need a greater understanding of the technology of networking. Acquiring a clear understanding of communication protocols is an important step in understanding how a network…
We show preliminary results for the performance of Network Coded TCP (CTCP) over large latency networks. While CTCP performs very well in networks with relatively short RTT, the slow-start mechanism currently employed does not adequately…
The TCP window size process appears in the modeling of the famous Transmission Control Protocol used for data transmission over the Internet. This continuous time Markov process takes its values in $[0,\infty)$, is ergodic and irreversible.…
Time-to-Live data in the IP header offers two interesting characteristics: First, different IP stacks pick different start TTL values. Second, each traversed router should decrement the TTL value. The combination of both offers host and…
Network reconstruction consists in retrieving the hidden interaction structure of a system from observations. Many reconstruction algorithms have been proposed, although less research has been devoted to describe their theoretical…
The measurement of performance of Internet Protocol IP network can be done by Transmission Control Protocol TCP because it guarantees send data from one end of the connection actually gets to the other end and in the same order it was send,…
Due to rapid advancement in modern technology, as one of the major concerns is the stability of business. The organizations depend on their systems to provide robust and faster processing of information for their operations. Efficient data…
Classical approaches for asymptotic convergence to the global average in a distributed fashion typically assume timely and reliable exchange of information between neighboring components of a given multi-component system. These assumptions…
Network telescopes serve as a critical passive monitoring tool for capturing unsolicited Internet traffic, providing insights into global scanning and reconnaissance behavior. This study analyzes a 10-day dataset during January 2025…
Motivated by recent concerns that queuing delays in the Internet are on the rise, we conduct a performance evaluation of Compound TCP (C-TCP) in two topologies: a single bottleneck and a multi-bottleneck topology, under different traffic…
The well-known trace reconstruction problem is the problem of inferring an unknown source string $x \in \{0,1\}^n$ from independent "traces", i.e. copies of $x$ that have been corrupted by a $\delta$-deletion channel which independently…
We analyze the performance of a system composed of two interfering point-to-point links where the transmitters can exploit a common relay to improve their individual transmission rate. When the relay uses the amplify-and-forward protocol we…
As a strategy to further reduce the transmission pressure during the peak traffic times in wireless network, coded caching has been widely studied recently. And several coded caching schemes are constructed focusing on the two core problems…
