Public key infrastructures are essential for Internet security, ensuring robust certificate management and revocation mechanisms. The transition from centralized to decentralized systems presents challenges such as trust distribution and…
Privacy preserving networks can be modelled as decentralized networks (e.g., sensors, connected objects, smartphones), where communication between nodes of the network is not controlled by an all-knowing, central node. For this type of…
Real-time communications (RTC) is a core technology for emerging applications in 6G, such as cloud gaming, teleoperation, and extended reality (XR), which require consistently low latency and high bitrates. Existing RTC solutions…
Embedded real-time devices for monitoring, controlling, and collaboration purposes in cyber-physical systems are now commonly equipped with IP networking capabilities. However, the reception and processing of IP packets generates workloads…
The traditional TCP congestion control mechanism encounters a number of new problems and suffers a poor performance when the IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol is used in multihop ad hoc networks. Many of the problems result from medium contention at…
We consider a multiple access communication system where multiple users share a common collision channel. Each user observes its local traffic and the feedback from the channel. At each time instant the feedback from the channel is one of…
We analyze how the performance of a quantum-repeater network depends on the protocol employed to distribute entanglement, and we find that the choice of repeater-to-repeater link protocol has a profound impact on communication rate as a…
Ad-hoc Social Network (ASNET), which explores social connectivity between users of mobile devices, is becoming one of the most important forms of today's internet. In this context, maximum bandwidth utilization of intermediate nodes in…
Over the past years, TCP has gone through numerous updates to provide performance enhancement under diverse network conditions. However, with respect to losses, little can be achieved with legacy TCP detection and recovery mechanisms. Both…
Since its earliest days, the Worldwide LHC Computational Grid (WLCG) has relied on GridFTP to transfer data between sites. The announcement that Globus is dropping support of its open source Globus Toolkit (GT), which forms the basis for…
This paper proposes and evaluates a new position-based Parallel Routing Protocol (PRP) for simultaneously routing multiple data packets over disjoint paths in a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) for higher reliability and reduced communication…
We present a peer-to-peer (P2P) live-streaming architecture designed to address challenges such as free-riding, malicious peers, churn, and network instability through the integration of a reputation system. The proposed algorithm…
A network covert channel is created that uses resource names such as addresses to convey information, and that approximates typical user behavior in order to blend in with its environment. The channel correlates available resource names…
Intermittent connectivity of clients to the parameter server (PS) is a major bottleneck in federated edge learning frameworks. The lack of constant connectivity induces a large generalization gap, especially when the local data distribution…
The added value of Device-to-Device (D2D) communication amounts to an efficient content discovery mechanism that enables users to steer their requests toward the node most likely to satisfy them. In this paper, we address the implementation…
Mobile Ad-hoc Network is a temporary network which is the cooperative engagement of a collection of standalone mobile nodes that are not connected to any external network. It is a decentralized network where mobile nodes can be easily…
This paper studies the consensus control problem faced with three essential demands, namely, discrete control updating for each agent, discrete-time communications among neighboring agents, and the fully distributed fashion of the…
The advent of the Semantic Web necessitates paradigm shifts away from centralized client/server architectures towards decentralization and peer-to-peer computation, making the existence of central authorities superfluous and even…
While the Web of Data in principle offers access to a wide range of interlinked data, the architecture of the Semantic Web today relies mostly on the data providers to maintain access to their data through SPARQL endpoints. Several studies,…
High-performance industrial automation systems rely on tens of simultaneously active sensors and actuators and have stringent communication latency and reliability requirements. Current wireless technologies like WiFi, Bluetooth, and LTE…
