Peer-to-Peer protocols currently form the most heavily used protocol class in the Internet, with BitTorrent, the most popular protocol for content distribution, as its flagship. A high number of studies and investigations have been…
In multi-class communication networks, traffic surges due to one class of users can significantly degrade the performance for other classes. During these transient periods, it is thus of crucial importance to implement priority mechanisms…
The Target Wake Time (TWT) feature, introduced in Wi-Fi 6, was primarily meant as an advanced power save mechanism. However, it has some interesting applications in scheduling and resource allocation. TWT-based resource allocation can be…
P2P computing lifts taxing issues in various areas of computer science. The largely used decentralized unstructured P2P systems are ad hoc in nature and present a number of research challenges. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive…
In this work we present an overview of statistical learning, followed by a survey of robust streaming techniques and challenges, culminating in several rigorous results proving the relationship that we motivate and hint at throughout the…
In recent years, there are some major changes in the way content is being distributed over the network. The content distribution techniques have recently started to embrace peer-to-peer (P2P) systems as an alternative to the traditional…
Traffic shaping is a mechanism used by Internet Service Providers (ISPs) to limit subscribers' traffic based on their service contracts. This paper investigates the current implementation of traffic shaping based on the token bucket filter…
This study investigates the potential for deanonymizing services within the Invisible Internet Project (I2P) network through passive traffic analysis and machine learning techniques. The primary objective is to identify distinctive patterns…
This paper introduces a statistical model for the arrival times of connection events in a computer network. Edges between nodes in a network can be interpreted and modelled as point processes where events in the process indicate information…
In this paper we propose a novel approach for Twitter traffic analysis based on renewal theory. Even though twitter datasets are of increasing interest to researchers, extracting information from message timing remains somewhat unexplored.…
We propose flow-based analysis to estimate quality of an Internet connection. Using results from the queuing theory we compare two expressions for backbone traffic that have different scopes of applicability. A curve that shows dependence…
Unicast IPTV services that can support live TV, video-on-demand (VoD), video conferencing, and online gaming applications over broadband wireless cellular networks have been becoming popular in recent years. However, video streaming…
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has been widely used as an efficient way for communication in many applications. Data centers, smartphones, and network operators use MPTCP to balance the traffic in a network efficiently. MPTCP is an extension of TCP…
We study in this paper the integration of elastic and streaming traffic on a same link in an IP network. We are specifically interested in the computation of the mean bit rate obtained by a data transfer. For this purpose, we consider that…
Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) carries most of the traffic on the Internet these days. There are several implementations of TCP, and the most important difference among them is their mechanism for controlling congestion. One of the…
Traffic is a challenge in rural and urban areas alike with negative effects ranging from congestion to air pollution. Ride-sharing poses an appealing alternative to personal cars, combining the traffic-reducing ride bundling of public…
In search of scalable solutions, CDNs are exploring P2P support. However, the benefits of peer assistance can be limited by various obstacle factors such as ISP friendliness - requiring peers to be within the same ISP, bitrate…
Nowadays, millions of people interact on a daily basis on online social media like Facebook and Twitter, where they share and discuss information about a wide variety of topics. In this paper, we focus on a specific online social network,…
Fractal behavior and long-range dependence are widely observed in measurements and characterization of traffic flow in high-speed computer networks of different technologies and coverage levels. This paper presents the results obtained when…
Streaming data processing is a hot topic in big data these days, because it made it possible to process a huge amount of events within a low latency. One of the most common used open-source stream processing platforms is Spark Streaming,…
