The main goal in network information theory is to identify fundamental limits of communication over networks, and design solutions which perform close to such limits. After several decades of effort, many important problems still do not have a characteriza ...
A new class of photonic channelized radio-frequency
(RF) receiver is proposed and demonstrated. The new device relies
on generation of high fidelity signal copies by wavelength multicasting
in a self-seeded, two-pump parametric mixer. Signal copying
to ...

The aim of information-theoretic secrecy is to ensure that an eavesdropper who listens to the wireless transmission of a message can only collect an arbitrarily small number of information bits about this message. In contrast to cryptography, there are no ...
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 ...

In this paper, we give a characterization of the rate region for the degraded two message set problem, applied to a combination network with erasure channels. We also provide an algorithm that uses topological information in order to deliver the two messag ...
Shannon's discovery of digital communication has shaped the architecture of virtually all communication systems in use today. The digital communication paradigm is built around the notion of bits and uses careful coding to deliver bits reliably end-to-end. ...
A coding scheme for the two-receivers Gaussian broadcast channel (BC) with feedback is proposed. For some asymmetric settings it achieves new rate pairs. Moreover, it achieves prelog 2 when the noises at the two receivers are fully positively correlated an ...
We consider a set of interacting phase oscillators, with a coupling between synchronized nodes adaptively reinforced, and the constraint of a limited resource for a node to establish connections with the other units of the network. We show that such a comp ...
Network coding has been recently proposed as an efficient method to improve throughput, minimize delays and remove the need for reconciliation between network nodes in distributed streaming systems. It permits to take advantage of the path and node diversi ...
Multi-user communication theory typically studies the fundamental limits of communication systems, and considers communication schemes that approach or even achieve these limits. The functioning of many such schemes assumes that users always cooperate, eve ...
