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 ...
Top-k query processing is a fundamental building block for efficient ranking in a large number of applications. Efficiency is a central issue, especially for distributed settings, when the data is spread across different nodes in a network. This paper intr ...
In this paper, we discuss an important problem of the selection of the neighborhood radius in the learning schemes of the Winner Takes Most Kohonen neural network. The optimization of this parameter is essential in case of hardware realization of the netwo ...
In this paper we consider communication from a source to a destination over a wireless network with the help of a set of authenticated relays. We focus on a special ``diamond'' network, where there is no direct link between the source and the destination; ...
The response of a steel structure is closely related to the behavior of its joints. This means that it is necessary to take explicit account of joint properties in order to ensure a consistent approach to design optimization of steel frames. Semi-rigid des ...
This paper addresses the problem of distributed rate allocation for a class of multicast networks employing linear network coding. The goal is to minimize the cost (for example, the sum rates allocated to each link in the network) while satisfying a multic ...
We consider multisource non-coherent network coding, where multiple sources send information to one or multiple receivers. We prove that this is equivalent to a ldquosubspacerdquo channel, that takes subspaces as inputs and outputs. We then show that the r ...

A new optimized algorithm for the learning process suitable for hardware implemented Winner Takes Most Kohonen Neural Network (KNN) has been proposed in the paper. In networks of this type a neighborhood mechanism is used to improve the convergence propert ...
Providing real-time multimedia services over a best-effort network is challenging due to the stringent delay requirements in the presence of complex network dynamics. Multiple description (MD) coding is one approach to transmit the media over diverse (mult ...
