We propose a mechanism that incorporates network coding into TCP with only minor changes to the protocol stack, thereby allowing incremental deployment. In our scheme, the source transmits random linear combinations of packets currently in…
We introduce a new conservation-based approach for traffic coordination modeling and control in a network of interconnected roads (NOIR) with switching movement phase rotations at every NOIR junction. For modeling of traffic evolution, we…
Transmission networks consist of thousands of branches for large-scale real power systems. They are built with a high degree of redundancy for reliability concern. Thus, it is very likely that there exist various network topologies that can…
We introduce a new approach to the maximum flow problem in undirected, capacitated graphs using $\alpha$-\emph{congestion-approximators}: easy-to-compute functions that approximate the congestion required to route single-commodity demands…
Network-on-Chip (NoC) congestion builds up during heavy traffic load and cripples the system performance by stalling the cores. Moreover, congestion leads to wasted link bandwidth due to blocked buffers and bouncing packets. Existing…
Collaborative edge computing has become a popular paradigm where edge devices collaborate by sharing resources. Data dissemination is a fundamental problem in CEC to decide what data is transmitted from which device and how. Existing works…
Service Function Chaining (SFC) allows the forwarding of a traffic flow along a chain of Virtual Network Functions (VNFs, e.g., IDS, firewall, and NAT). Software Defined Networking (SDN) solutions can be used to support SFC reducing the…
ABR traffic management for point-to-multipoint connections controls the source rate to the minimum rate supported by all the branches of the multicast tree. A number of algorithms have been developed for extending ABR congestion avoidance…

Software-Defined Networking (SDN) introduces a centralized network control and management by separating the data plane from the control plane which facilitates traffic flow monitoring, security analysis and policy formulation. However, it…
Nowadays, the bulk of Internet traffic uses TCP protocol for reliable transmission. But the standard TCP's performance is very poor in High Speed Networks (HSN) and hence the core gigabytes links are usually underutilization. This problem…
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…
