Communication-based Leashing of Real Flying Robots

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, Sabine Hauert, Severin Leven

Aerial robots are often required to remain within the communication range of a base station on the ground to exchange commands, sensor data or as a safety mechanism. For this purpose, we propose a minimal control strategy for steering flying robots using o ...

On the Age of Pseudonyms in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Julien Freudiger

In many envisioned mobile ad hoc networks, nodes are expected to periodically beacon to advertise their presence. In this way, they can receive messages addressed to them or participate in routing operations. Yet, these beacons leak information about the n ...

Boosting Gossip for Live Streaming

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Maxime Monod, Davide Frey

Gossip protocols are considered very effective to disseminate information in a large scale dynamic distributed system. Their inherent simplicity makes them easy to implement and deploy. However, whereas their probabilistic guarantees are often enough to di ...

Asymmetric Multilevel Diversity Coding and Asymmetric Gaussian Multiple Descriptions

Suhas Diggavi

We consider the asymmetric multilevel diversity (A-MLD) coding problem, where a set of 2(K) - 1 information sources, ordered in a decreasing level of importance, is encoded into K messages (or descriptions). There are 2(K) - 1 decoders, each of which has a ...

One Acceptor is Enough

Rachid Guerraoui, Maysam Yabandeh

The celebrated Paxos protocol implements a reliable service as a state machine replicated over several machines. Replication provides reliability against permanent failures and availability against temporary crash failures. Whereas, in theory, Paxos can to ...

PaxosInside

Rachid Guerraoui, Maysam Yabandeh

Amodernmanycore architecture can be viewed as a distributed system with explicit message passing to communicate between cores. Ensuring the consistency of shared state replicated over several cores is the key to the well functioning of such a system. Yet, ...

CHARON: Convergent Hybrid-Replication Approach to Routing in Opportunistic Networks – Efficient Collection Routing for Low-Density Mobile WSNs

Jorge Miguel Dias Almeida Rodrigues Soares

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) have been slowly moving into the mainstream as remote monitoring solutions – especially in hostile, hard-to-reach or otherwise complicated scenarios, where deployment of a traditional network may be unpractical. Some of the ...

MIMO Compute-and-Forward

Michael Christoph Gastpar

In many network communication scenarios, a relay in the network may only need to recover and retransmit an equation of the transmitted messages. In previous work, it has been shown that if each transmitter employs the same lattice code, the interference st ...

On Degraded Two Message Set Broadcast

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Vinod Malathidevi Prabhakaran, Shirin Saeedi Bidokhti

We consider the two message set problem, where a source broadcasts a common message

W_1

to an arbitrary set of receivers

\mathcal{U}

and a private message

W_2

to a subset of the receivers

\mathcal{P}\subseteq \mathcal{U}

. Transmissions occur over l ...

Interference Alignment at Finite SNR: General Message Sets

Michael Christoph Gastpar

Interference alignment has proven to be a powerful tool in characterizing the high SNR behavior of wireless networks. Using this technique, Cadambe and Jafar showed that the sum degrees-of-freedom for the K-user interference channel is K/2 rather than 1 as ...
