Resource reservation is a fundamental mechanism for ensuring quality of service in time-sensitive networks, which can be decentralized by using reservation protocols. In the Ethernet technology Time-Sensitive Networking, this has been…

Modern transformer-based sequential recommenders excel at capturing short-term intent but often suffer from recency bias, overlooking stable long-term preferences. While extending sequence lengths is an intuitive fix, it is computationally…

Massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) are one of the three types of services that should be supported by 5G networks. These are distinguished by the need to serve a large number of devices which are characterized by nonintensive…

The problem of wireless M2M communication is twofold: the reliability aspect and the scalability aspect. The solution of this problem demands a delay constrained random access protocol. To this end we propose Admission Control based Traffic…

LTE and LTE-Advanced have been optimized to deliver high bandwidth pipes to wireless users. The transport mechanisms have been tailored to maximize single cell performance by enforcing strict synchronism and orthogonality within a single…

In this paper we propose a novel context-aware approach for resource allocation in device to device (D2D) communication networks which exploits context information about the users velocity and size of their demanded data to decide whether…

Over the last years, considerable attention has been given to the privacy of individuals in wireless environments. Although significantly improved over the previous generations of mobile networks, LTE still exposes vulnerabilities that…

Integrating contention-based random access procedures into low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite communication (SatCom) systems poses new challenges, including long propagation delays, large Doppler shifts, and a large number of simultaneous…

Both capacity and latency are crucial performance metrics for the optimal operation of most networking services and applications, from online gaming to futuristic holographic-type communications. Networks worldwide have witnessed important…

We consider the problem of resolving contention in communication networks with selfish users. In a \textit{contention game} each of $n \geq 2$ identical players has a single information packet that she wants to transmit using one of $k \geq…

The growing interest in new applications involving co-located heterogeneous requirements, such as the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) paradigm, poses unprecedented challenges to the uplink wireless transmissions. Dedicated scheduling…

This paper addresses a fundamental limitation of previous random access protocols, their lack of latency performance guarantees. We consider $K$ IoT transmitters competing for uplink resources and we design a fully distributed protocol for…

Delay and Disruption Tolerant Networks (DTNs) may lack continuous network connectivity. Routing in DTNs is thus a challenge since it must handle network partitioning, long delays, and dynamic topology. Meanwhile, routing protocols of the…

Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a standardized TCP extension which allows end-hosts to simultaneously exploit all of their network interfaces. The recent proliferation of dual-SIM mobile phones makes multi-LTE MPTCP setup an attractive option. We…

Heterogeneous network (HetNet) is a key enabler to largely boost network coverage and capacity in the forthcoming fifth-generation (5G) and beyond. To support the explosively growing mobile data volumes, wireless communications with…

Synchronous massive machine device access can lead to severe congestion in the random access channel (RACH) of LTE networks. With scarce frequency resources, effective means must be developed to combat this key challenge. In this letter,…

A frequent problem in settings where a unique resource must be shared among users is how to resolve the contention that arises when all of them must use it, but the resource allows only for one user each time. The application of efficient…

The massive proliferation of wireless infrastructures with complementary characteristics prompts the bandwidth aggregation for Concurrent Multipath Transfer (CMT) over heterogeneous access networks. Stream Control Transmission Protocol…

Routing the packets efficiently in mobile ad hoc network does not have end to end paths. Multiple copies are forwarded from the source to the destination. To deal with such networks, researches introduced flooding based routing schemes…

Cross-technology communication (CTC) was proposed in recent literature as a way to exploit the opportunities of collaboration between heterogeneous wireless technologies. This paper presents LtFi, a system which enables to set-up a CTC…
