Loss and Delay Accountability for the Internet

Olga Irzak

The Internet provides no information on the fate of transmitted packets, and end systems cannot determine who is responsible for dropping or delaying their traffic. As a result, they cannot verify that their ISPs are honoring their service level agreements ...

Network Coding Applications

Christina Fragouli, Emina Soljanin

Network coding is an elegant and novel technique introduced at the turn of the millennium to improve network throughput and performance. It is expected to be a critical technology for networks of the future. This tutorial deals with wireless and content di ...

Nash Equilibria of Packet Forwarding Strategies in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Mark Felegyhazi, Levente Buttyan

In self-organizing ad hoc networks, all the networking functions rely on the contribution of the participants. As a basic example, nodes have to forward packets for each other in order to enable multi-hop communication. In recent years, incentive mechanism ...

Node Cooperation in Hybrid Ad hoc Networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Naouel Ben Salem, Levente Buttyan

A hybrid ad hoc network is a structure-based network that is extended using multi-hop communications. Indeed, in this kind of network, the existence of a communication link between the mobile station and the base station is not required: A mobile station t ...

Anypath routing

Henri Julien Dubois-Ferrière

In many networks, it is less costly to transmit a packet to any node in a set of neighbors than to one specific neighbor. A well-known instance is with unreliable wireless links, where the probability that at least one node out ofnreceives a packet increas ...

Self-Limiting Epidemic Forwarding

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Alaeddine El Fawal

We define a self-limiting epidemic service as a dissemination service for ad-hoc environments that is broadcast in nature, but is limited to a local scope around each source. Example applications are chatting or bulletin boards in a traffic jam, in an inst ...

A Network Coding Approach to Network Monitoring (Invited Paper)

Christina Fragouli

Network Monitoring is a challenging problem that has received a lot of attention in the Internet community, particularly in the context of overlay networks. Independently, recent advances in Network Coding have shown that it is possible to increase network ...

A Network Coding Approach to Energy Efficient Broadcasting: from Theory to Practice

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Christina Fragouli, Jörg Widmer

We show that network coding allows to realize significant energy savings in a wireless ad-hoc network, when each node of the network is a source that wants to transmit information to all other nodes. Energy efficiency directly affects battery life and thus ...

Scalable position-based multicast for mobile ad-hoc networks

Jörg Widmer

In this paper we present Scalable Position-Based Multicast (SPBM), a multicast routing protocol for ad-hoc networks. SPBM uses the geographic position of nodes to provide a highly scalable group membership scheme and to forward data packets with a very low ...

Contention-based forwarding for street scenarios

Jörg Widmer

In this paper, we propose to apply Contention-Based Forwarding (CBF) to Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). CBF is a greedy position-based forwarding algorithm that does not require proactive transmission of beacon messages. CBF performance is analyzed usi ...
