Particle filters are a group of algorithms to solve inverse problems through statistical Bayesian methods when the model does not comply with the linear and Gaussian hypothesis. Particle filters are used in domains like data assimilation,…
Consider n nodes connected to a single coordinator. Each node receives an individual online data stream of numbers and, at any point in time, the coordinator has to know the k nodes currently observing the largest values, for a given k…
This thesis focuses on link scheduling in wireless mesh networks by taking into account physical layer characteristics. The assumption made throughout is that a packet is received successfully only if the Signal to Interference and Noise…
The approach for a network behavior description in terms of numerical time-dependant functions of the protocol parameters is suggested. This provides a basis for application of methods of mathematical and theoretical physics for information…
Target control of directed networks, which aims to control only a target subset instead of the entire set of nodes in large natural and technological networks, is an outstanding challenge faced in various real world applications. We address…
This paper is concerned with the theoretical and computational development of a new class of nonlinear filtering algorithms called the optimal transport particle filters (OTPF). The algorithm is based on a recently introduced variational…
Heightened interest from nation states to perform content censorship make it evermore critical to identify the impact of censorship efforts on the Internet. We undertake a study of Internet architecture, capturing the state of Internet…
A new approach for the analysis of information flow on a network is suggested using protocol parameters encapsulated in the package headers as functions of time. The minimal number of independent parameters for a complete description of the…
We consider algorithms to schedule packets with values and deadlines in a size-bounded buffer. At any time, the buffer can store at most B packets. Packets arrive over time. Each packet has a non-negative value and an integer deadline. In…
We explored the statistics of filtering of simple patterns on a number of deterministic and random graphs as a tractable simple example of information processing in complex systems. In this problem, multiple inputs map to the same output,…
Network routing is a distributed decision problem which naturally admits numerical performance measures, such as the average time for a packet to travel from source to destination. OLPOMDP, a policy-gradient reinforcement learning…
Power packet dispatching system has been proposed for smart power management in the form of discretized packet. In this paper, we discuss the routing optimization of power packets on the network of power routers. We propose a cost metric…
A linear list is a collection of items that can be accessed sequentially. The cost of a request is the number of items that need to be examined before the desired item is located, i.e., the distance of the requested item from the beginning…
Modern applications are highly sensitive to communication delays and throughput. This paper surveys major attempts on reducing latency and increasing the throughput. These methods are surveyed on different networks and surroundings such as…
The use of IP filtering to improve system security is well established, and although limited in what it can achieve has proved to be efficient and effective. In the design of a security policy there is always a trade-off between usability…
