Software-defined networking (SDN) has improved the routing functionality in networks like data centers or WANs. Recently, several studies proposed to apply the SDN principles in the Internet's inter-domain routing as well. This could offer…
-Multipath communications at the Internet scale have been a myth for a long time, with no actual protocol being deployed so that multiple paths could be taken by a same connection on the way towards an Internet destination. Recently, the…
Multipathing in communication networks is gaining momentum due to its attractive features of increased reliability, throughput, fault tolerance, and load balancing capabilities. In particular, wireless environments and datacenters are…
The Internet's TCP/IP architecture was designed for resilient packet delivery between hosts identified by IP addresses. Over time, however, the consolidation of applications and services into large-scale platforms built on that universal…
Some iterative calculations can be carried out by parallel communicating processors, and yield the same results whether or not the processors are synchronized. We show that this is the case if and only if the iteration is a contraction that…
In backbone networks, it is fundamental to quickly protect traffic against any unexpected event, such as failures or congestions, which may impact Quality of Service (QoS). Standard solutions based on Segment Routing (SR), such as…
Source-specific routing (not to be confused with source routing) is a routing technique where routing decisions depend on both the source and the destination address of a packet. Source-specific routing solves some difficult problems…
Large scale decentralized communication systems have introduced the new trend towards online routing where routing decisions are performed based on a limited and localized knowledge of the network. Geometrical greedy routing has been among…
This study explores the problem of Multi-Agent Path Finding with continuous and stochastic travel times whose probability distribution is unknown. Our purpose is to manage a group of automated robots that provide package delivery services…
Numerous protocols for geocast have been proposed in literature. It has been shown that explicit route setup approaches perform poorly with VANETs due to limited route lifetime and frequent network fragmentation. The broadcast based…
In this paper, we present a new routing paradigm that generalizes opportunistic routing in wireless mesh networks. In multirate anypath routing, each node uses both a set of next hops and a selected transmission rate to reach a destination.…
Use of multi-path network topologies has become a prominent technique to assert timeliness in terms of age of information (AoI) and to improve resilience to link disruptions in communication systems. However, establishing multiple dedicated…
Now a days, Internet plays a major role in our day to day activities e.g., for online transactions, online shopping, and other network related applications. Internet suffers from slow convergence of routing protocols after a network failure…
With the increasing attention to the integrated satellite-terrestrial networks (ISTNs), the satellite gateway placement problem becomes of paramount importance. The resulting network performance may vary depending on the different design…
In optical WDM networks, since each lightpath can carry a huge mount of traffic, failures may seriously damage the end user applications. Hence fault tolerance becomes an important issue on these networks. The light path which carries…
Routing algorithms play a crucial role in the efficient transmission of data within computer networks by determining the optimal paths for packet forwarding. This paper presents a comprehensive exploration of routing algorithms, focusing on…
When multiple users share a common link in direct transmission, packet loss and network collision may occur due to the simultaneous arrival of traffics at the source node. To tackle this problem, users may resort to an indirect path: the…
In window flow controlled networks, if a packet is lost the destination has to decide whether to save (cache) subsequent out-of-order packets. Also, the source has to decide whether to send just one packet or to send all packets following…
Backpressure (BP) routing and scheduling is an established resource allocation method for wireless multi-hop networks, noted for its fully distributed operation and maximum queue stability. Recent advances in shortest path-biased BP routing…
Internet traffic continues to grow relentlessly, driven largely by increasingly high resolution video content. Although studies have shown that the majority of packets processed by Internet routers are pass-through traffic, they nonetheless…
