Due to their inherent complexity, engineered wireless multihop ad hoc communication networks represent a technological challenge. Having no mastering infrastructure the nodes have to selforganize themselves in such a way that for example…
Various congestion control protocols have been designed to achieve high performance in different network environments. Modern online learning solutions that delegate the congestion control actions to a machine cannot properly converge in…
The goal of congestion control is to avoid congestion in network elements. A network element is congested if it is being offered more traffic than it can process. To detect such situations and to neutralize them we should monitor traffic in…
Wireless sensor networks hold a great potential in the deployment of several applications of a paramount importance in our daily life. Video sensors are able to improve a number of these applications where new approaches adapted to both…
Emerging collaborative Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems require discovery and utilization of diverse, multi-attribute, distributed, and dynamic groups of resources to achieve greater tasks beyond conventional file and processor cycle sharing.…
During the last decade, we witnessed a rapid growth in deployment of pull-based P2P streaming applications. In these applications, each node selects some other nodes as its neighbors and requests streaming data from them. This scheme allows…
FAST-TCP achieves better performance than traditional TCP-Reno schemes, but unfortunately it is inherently unfair to older connections due to wrong estimations of the round-trip propagation delay. This paper presents a model for this…
Broadcasting systems such as P2P streaming systems represent important network applications that support up to millions of online users. An efficient broadcasting mechanism is at the core of the system design. Despite substantial efforts on…
Many applications want to use TCP congestion control to regulate the transmission rate of a data packet stream. A natural way to achieve this goal is to transport the data packet stream on a TCP connection. However, because TCP implements…
We consider streaming over a peer-to-peer network with homogeneous nodes in which a single source broadcasts a data stream to all the users in the system. Peers are allowed to enter or leave the system (adversarially) arbitrarily. Previous…
In mobile wireless networks, livestreaming in high user density areas presents two typical challenges: the wireless bandwidth is depleted and the number of users is limited. In this study, a media distribution model utilizing peer to peer…
Fair queuing is becoming increasingly prevalent in the internet and has been shown to improve performance in many circumstances. Performance could be improved even more if endpoints could detect the presence of fair queuing on a certain…
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…
Recent years have witnessed a dramatic increase of user-generated video services. In such user-generated video services, crowdsourced live streaming (e.g., Periscope, Twitch) has significantly challenged today's edge network infrastructure:…
Today, considerable Internet traffic is sent from the datacenter and heads for users. The characteristics of connections served by servers in datacenters are usually diverse and varied over time, with continuous upgrades in network…
P2P overlays provide a framework for building distributed applications consisting of few to many resources with features including self-configuration, scalability, and resilience to node failures. Such systems have been successfully adopted…
