We propose the object-oriented networking (OON) framework, for meeting the generalized interconnection, mobility and technology integration requirements underlining the Internet. In OON, the various objects that need to be accessed through…
The Physical Internet (PI) raises high expectations for efficiency gains in transport and logistics. The PI represents the network of logistics networks for physical objects in analogy to the Data Internet (DI). Road based traffic…
The 5-layer TCP and 7-layer OSI models are taught as high-level frameworks in which the various protocols that are used in computer networks operate. These models provide valid insights in the organization of network functionalities and…
The SI model is the most basic of all compartmental models used to describe the spreading of information through a population. Despite its apparent simplicity, the analytic solution of this model on networks is still lacking. We address…
In this paper we focus on the invention of new network forwarding behaviors between network Layers 4 and Layer 7 in the OSI network model. Our design goal is to propose no changes to L3 - The IP network layer, thus maintaining 100%…
The OSI model, developed by ISO in 1984, attempts to summarize complicated network cases on layers. Moreover, network troubles are expressed by taking the model into account. However, there has been no standardization for network troubles…
Networks-of-networks (NoN) is a graph-theoretic model of interdependent networks that have distinct dynamics at each network (layer). By adding special edges to represent relationships between nodes in different layers, NoN provides a…
Many complex systems in science and engineering are modeled as networks whose nodes and links depict the temporal evolution of each system unit and the dynamic interaction between pairs of units, which are assessed respectively using…
We introduce a novel framework, Online Relational Inference (ORI), designed to efficiently identify hidden interaction graphs in evolving multi-agent interacting systems using streaming data. Unlike traditional offline methods that rely on…
