We consider streaming video content over an overlay network of peer nodes. Each of the nodes employs a mesh-pull mechanism to organize the download of data units from its neighbours. We propose a novel algorithm for constructing the distribution overlay, w ...
Data replication is an indispensable service for mobile ad hoc networks and it helps to increase data availability, reduce communication overhead, achieve fault-tolerance and load balancing. Our scalable and reactive data replication framework SCALAR opera ...

We consider streaming video content over an overlay network of peer nodes. We propose a novel streaming strategy that is built on utility-based packet scheduling and proportional resource sharing in order to fight against free- riders. Each of the peers em ...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) architectures are popular for tasks such as collaborative download, VoIP telephony, and backup. To maximize performance in the face of widely variable storage capacities and bandwidths, such systems typically need to shift work from poor ...
We investigate the problem of collaborative video streaming in overlay networks. We exploit path and source diversity, as well as basic processing capabilities of network nodes in order to increase the overall throughput and improve the video quality at th ...
Novel network architectures such as overlay networks offer significant diversity that can compensate for the lack of strict quality of service in today's communication infrastructures. In order to take advantage of this diversity for delay-sensitive media ...
Lossless transmission of a set of correlated sources over a deterministic relay network is considered for two traffic requirements. In distributed multicast, the set of sources are to be delivered to a set of destinations. The source exchange requires all ...
We describe how a set of mobile robots can arrange themselves on any specified curve on the plane in the presence of dynamic changes both in the underlying ad hoc network and in the set of participating robots. Our strategy is for the mobile robots to impl ...
In networks that employ network coding, two main approaches have been proposed in the literature to allow the receivers to recover the source information: (i) use of coding vectors, that keep track of the linear combinations the received packets contain, a ...
Network coding has recently emerged as an alternative to traditional routing algorithms in communication systems. In network coding, the network nodes can combine the packets they receive before forwarding them to the neighbouring nodes. Intensive research ...
