We consider the problem of mesh-pull based video broadcast in peer-to-peer networks. We propose a novel algorithm for constructing the distribution overlay, where peers are arranged in neighborhoods that exhibit similar latency values from the origin media ...
The inherent complexity characterizing the production and/or service networks strongly favors decentralized and self-organizing mechanisms to regulate the flows of matter and information in circulation. This basic observation motivates us to study the flow ...
Techniques for efficiently assigning resources for spurts of traffic in a wireless communication system are described. The system may support semi-persistent and non-persistent resource assignments. A semi-persistent resource assignment is valid for as lon ...
This paper analyzes several mitigation strategies and techniques that could enable delay sensitive applications to work properly over satellite IP networks. A study is conducted on different satellite classes (GEO, MEO and LEO) and the analysis of the curr ...
In this thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...
Like other problems in network tomography or traffic matrix estimation, the location of congested IP links from end-to-end measurements requires solving a system of equations that relate the measurement outcomes with the variables representing the status o ...
We describe our design of a geocast service for mobile partitioned networks (MPNs). We focus mainly on minimizing the delivery latency. Our approach exploits the time-stability of the collective mobility pattern. In MPNs, in contrast to MANETs, the end-to- ...
In opportunistic routing, each node maintains a group of candidate next-hops to reach a particular destination, and transmits packets to any node in this group. The choice of candidate next-hops at each node is a key question that is central to the perform ...
Network-on-Chip (NoC) has emerged as a very promising paradigm for designing scalable communication architecture for Systems on Chips (SoCs). However, NoCs designed to fulfill the bandwidth requirements between the cores of an SoC for a certain set of runn ...
Current multimedia design processes suffer from the excessively large time spent on testing new IP-blocks with references based on large video encoders specifications (usually several thousands lines of code). The appropriate testing of a single IP-block m ...
