Cooperative data exchange based on MDS codes

The coded cooperative data exchange problem is studied for the fully connected network. In this problem, each node initially only possesses a subset of the K packets making up the file. Nodes make broadcast transmissions that are received by all other node ...

Improved Utility-based Congestion Control for Low-Delay Communication

Pascal Frossard, Laura Toni, Sergio Mena, Stefano D'Aronco

Due to the presence of buffers in the inner network nodes, each congestion event leads to buffer queueing and thus to an increasing end-to-end delay. In the case of delay sensitive applications, a large delay might not be acceptable and a solution to prope ...

Measuring and Managing Switch Diversity in Software Defined Networks

Maciej Leszek Kuzniar

Software Defined Networking (SDN) is a novel approach to building computer networks. Improved flexibility, simplified management and cost reduction promised by SDN makes many see it as the future of networking. The main insight of SDN is the separation of ...

Building Evolvable Networks

Mihai Dobrescu

Software packet-processing platforms--network devices running on general-purpose servers--are emerging as a compelling alternative to the traditional high-end switches and routers running on specialized hardware. Their promise is to enable the fast dep ...

Maximum Throughput Gain of Compute-and-Forward for Multiple Unicast

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

Compute-and-Forward (CF), also known as reliable physical layer network coding, is a technique that provides the possibility of exploiting the features of broadcast and superposition in wireless networks. It has been shown that the throughput for multiple ...

Creating Secrets out of Erasures

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Panagiotis Kostopoulos

Current security systems often rely on the adversary's computational limitations. Wireless networks offer the opportunity for a different, complementary kind of security, which relies on the adversary's limited network presence (i.e., that the adversary ca ...

Empirical Performance Evaluation of Data Dissemination Mechanisms for Spot Applications

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Alaeddine El Fawal, Adel Aziz

We evaluate, by measurements on a real testbed, the performance of networking services required for spot applications. We call a “spot application” an application for smartphones (such as “Ad-hoc Flash Sales”) that disseminates information in a local neigh ...

Compute-and-forward on wireless lattice networks with local interference

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

The capacity of a wireless lattice network with local interference is studied. In particular, the transport capacity under a multiple unicast traffic pattern is studied for a network of nodes placed on a hexagonal lattice. Different ways of handling broadc ...

Line and Lattice Networks Under Deterministic Interference Models

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Jasper Goseling

Capacity bounds are compared for four different deterministic models of wireless networks, representing four different ways of handling broadcast and superposition in the physical layer. In particular, the transport capacity under a multiple unicast traffi ...

Valuable Detours: Least-Cost Anypath Routing

Martin Vetterli, Matthias Grossglauser, 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. This observation was previously exploited by opportunistic routing protocols by using single-path routing metrics to assign to each no ...
