Research efforts in the design of image-based gestural interfaces have steadily increased over the last few years. Numerous approaches have been investigated to recognize gestures such as facial expressions, hand gestures or hand postures. Nevertheless, th ...
Peter Urban, Xavier Defago and Andre Schiper Neko: A Single Environment to Simulate and Prototype Distributed Algorithms Designing, tuning, and analyzing the performance of distributed algorithms and protocols are complex tasks. A major factor that contrib ...
In mobile ad-hoc networks nodes need to cooperate to communicate, but there are many reasons for non-cooperation. Saving power or preventing other nodes from obstructing a service are merely selfish reasons for non-cooperation, whereas nodes may also activ ...
Cryptographic protocols can enforce privacy in distributed computation of functions [Goldwasser'96] and are a competitor of the distributed constructive search techniques. [Goldreich'87,Chaum'87,Chaum'88,Ben-or'88] show how cryptographic protocols can be c ...
In many standards, e.g. SSL/TLS, IPSEC, WTLS, messages are first pre-formatted, then encrypted in CBC mode with a block cipher. Decryption needs to check if the format is valid. Validity of the format is easily leaked from communication protocols in a chos ...
The paper describes the state of the art in the design of receivers for chaos based digital communication over noisy channels. In the first part, an information theoretic analysis of the potential of chaos in digital communication schemes is given, underli ...
In this thesis we study two routing problems related to mobility. The first problem concerns scalable multicast routing when there is a large number of multicast groups with a small number of receivers. Existing dense and sparse mode routing protocols have ...
Network Calculus is a set of recent developments, which provide a deep insight into flow problems encountered in networking. It can be viewed as the system theory that applies to computer networks. Contrary to traditional system theory, it relies on max-pl ...
Satellite-UMTS supports broadcast applications that involve transmission of the same encoded data over channels that may vary significantly. The same code must allow a user with a good channel to recover the information with low complexity, while a user wi ...
The paper gives an information theoretic analysis of the potential of chaos in digital communication schemes, underlining that there is no fundamental principle that speaks against the use of chaotic systems in digital communications. The channel model con ...
