The framework of complex networks has been shown to describe adequately a wide class of complex systems made up of a large number of interacting units. In this framework, a node is associated to each unit and two nodes are connected by an edge if the two u ...
In this paper, we consider the problem of streaming video information on lossy packet networks with path and source diversity, such as wireless mesh networks or more generally overlay architectures. We propose to distribute the video information between se ...
Virtual private network design in the hose model deals with the reservation of capacities in a weighted graph such that the terminals in this network can communicate with one another. Each terminal is equipped with an upper bound on the amount of traffic t ...
Virtual private network design deals with the reservation of capacities in a network, such that the nodes can share communication. Each node in the network has associated upper bounds on the amount of flow that it can send to the network and receive from t ...
End-to-end active network monitoring infers network characteristics by sending and collecting probe packets from the network edge, while probes traverse the network through multicast trees or a mesh of unicast paths. Most reported methods consider given so ...
The gradual transformation of a mushy zone during alloy solidification, from a continuous liquid film network to a fully coherent solid, has been simulated using a granular model. Based on a Voronoi tessellation of a random set of nucleation centers, solid ...
We investigate the problem of collaborative video streaming with Raptor network coding over overlay networks. We exploit path and source diversity, as well as basic processing capabilities of network nodes to increase the overall throughput and improve the ...
Reducing the complexity of large systems described as complex networks is key to understanding them and a crucial issue is to know which properties of the initial system are preserved in the reduced one. Here we use random walks to design a coarse graining ...
Virtual private network design is the following NP-hard problem. We are given a communication network, represented as a weighted graph with thresholds on the nodes which represent the amount of flow that a node can send to and receive from the network. The ...
This paper presents a new method for evaluating product designs at their early stage of development according to different criteria and a case-study-based project. The goal is to select among imprecisely defined design alternatives in a multicriteria conte ...
