Last mile link is often a bottleneck for end user. However, users typically have multiple ways of accessing the Internet (cellular, ADSL, public Wifi). This observation led to creation of protocols like mTCP or R-MTP. Current bandwidth…
-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…
We introduce CTCP, a novel multi-path transport protocol using network coding. CTCP is designed to incorporate TCP's good features, such as congestion control and reliability, while improving on TCP's performance in lossy and/or dynamic…
In recent years, Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) has become widely used in current internet protocols. It is a text-based protocol much like Hyper Text Transport Protocol (HTTP) and Simple Mail Transport Protocol (SMTP). SIP is a strong…
Cloud applications need network data encryption to isolate from other tenants and protect their data from potential eavesdroppers in the network infrastructure. This paper presents SMT, a protocol design for emerging datacenter transport…
In this paper, we mainly investigate an integrated system operating under a software defined network (SDN) protocol. SDN is a new networking paradigm in which network intelligence is centrally administered and data is communicated via…
In this paper we propose SCDP, a general-purpose data transport protocol for data centres that, in contrast to all other protocols proposed to date, supports efficient one-to-many and many-to-one communication, which is extremely common in…
A well-known technique for enhancing the performance and stability of content distribution is the use of multiple dissemination flows. Multipath TCP (MPTCP), the most popular multiflow protocol on the Internet, allows receivers to exploit…
As cross-chain technology continues to advance, the scale of cross-chain transactions is experiencing significant expansion. To improve scalability, researchers have turned to the study of cross-chain state channels. However, most of the…
MQTT, one of the most popular protocols for the IoT, works according to a publish/subscribe pattern in which multiple clients connect to a single broker, generally hosted in the cloud. However, such a centralised approach does not scale…
Consider a time slotted communication channel shared by $K$ active users and a single receiver. It is assumed that the receiver has the ability of the multiple-packet reception (MPR) to correctly receive at most $\gamma$ ($1 \leq \gamma <…
We consider the problem of perfect (information-theoretically) secure message transmission (PSMT) from a sender $S$ to a receiver $R$ in asynchronous directed networks tolerating dual adversary. The adversary can control at most $t_p$ nodes…
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is a commonly used protocol for data transmission in small embedded systems. UDP as such is unreliable and packet losses can occur. The achievable data rates can suffer if optimal packet sizes are not used. The…
Streaming applications often tolerate bit errors in their received data well. This is contrasted by the enforcement of correctness of the packet headers and payload by network protocols. We investigate a solution for the Real-time Transport…
Cross layer techniques applied to various protocols stacks provide fair information sharing between OSI model layers. The performance gains have been demonstrated for many studied systems within protocols interactions. The example is…
A large number of streaming applications use reliable transport protocols such as TCP to deliver content over the Internet. However, head-of-line blocking due to packet loss recovery can often result in unwanted behavior and poor…
Rollout control is an MPC-based control method, in which a controller is periodically activated to schedule the transmission of sensor or actuator data. Therein, a preassigned traffic specification acts as a constraint on the scheduled…
This document is a technical overview and discussion of our work, a protocol for secure group messaging. By secure we mean for the actual users i.e. end-to-end security, as opposed to "secure" for irrelevant third parties. Our work provides…
In this paper, a streaming transmission setup is considered where an encoder observes a new message in the beginning of each block and a decoder sequentially decodes each message after a delay of $T$ blocks. In this streaming setup, the…
MultiPath TCP (MPTCP) is a promising protocol which brings new light to the TCP/IP protocol stack ossification problem by means of an impactful innovation of the transport layer. A MPTCP connection consists of a set of one or more subflows,…
