Several aspects of the problem of asynchronous point-to-point communication without feedback are developed when the source is highly intermittent. In the system model of interest, the codeword is transmitted at a random time within a…

For general connections, the problem of finding network codes and optimizing resources for those codes is intrinsically difficult and little is known about its complexity. Most of the existing solutions rely on very restricted classes of…

In this paper, we consider contention resolution on a multiple-access communication channel. In this problem, a set of nodes arrive over time, each with a message it intends to send. In each time slot, each node may attempt to broadcast its…

Explicit characterization of the capacity region of communication networks is a long standing problem. While it is known that network coding can outperform routing and replication, the set of feasible rates is not known in general.…

In this work, we study bounds on the capacity of full-duplex Gaussian 1-2-1 networks with imperfect beamforming. In particular, different from the ideal 1-2-1 network model introduced in [1], in this model beamforming patterns result in…

In this paper, we propose an algorithm that targets contamination and eavesdropping adversaries. We consider the case when the number of independent packets available to the eavesdropper is less than the multicast capacity of the network.…

The problem of network coding with multicast of a single source to multisink has first been studied by Ahlswede, Cai, Li and Yeung in 2000, in which they have established the celebrated max-flow mini-cut theorem on non-physical information…

When transmitting information over a noisy channel, two approaches, dating back to Shannon's work, are common: assuming the channel errors are independent of the transmitted content and devising an error-correcting code, or assuming the…

The maximum achievable capacity from source to destination in a network is limited by the min-cut max-flow bound; this serves as a converse limit. In practice, link capacities often fluctuate due to dynamic network conditions. In this work,…
