Social network has extended its popularity from the Internet to mobile domain. Personal mobile devices can be self-organized and communicate with each other for instant social activities at any time and in any places to achieve pervasive social networking ...
Current security systems often rely on the adversary's computational limitations. Wireless networks offer the opportunity for a different, complementary kind of security, which relies on the adversary's limited network presence (i.e., that the adversary ca ...
This paper describes the implementation and characterisation of a mobile ad-hoc network (MANET) of ultra-light intelligent flying robots. The flying nature of the network makes it suitable to collect or disseminate content in urban areas or challenging ter ...
Recent advances in data processing and communication systems have led to a continuous increase in the amount of data communicated over today’s networks. These large volumes of data pose new challenges on the current networking infrastructure that only offe ...
Complex networks exist for a number of purposes. The neural, metabolic and food networks ensure our survival, while the social, economic, transportation and communication networks allow us to prosper. Independently of the purposes and particularities of th ...
We study the problem of decentralized spectrum sensing in the presence of selfish secondary users. We employ diffusion strategies to guide the estimation process and a reputation mechanism to encourage secondary users to participate in the sharing of infor ...
We consider a general information-sharing game over adaptive networks with selfish agents, in which a diffusion strategy is employed to estimate a common target parameter. The benefit and cost of sharing information are embedded into the individual utility ...
Sharing economy platforms such as Airbnb and Uber face a major challenge in the form of peer-to-peer discrimination based on sensitive personal attributes such as race and gender. As shown by a recent study under controlled settings, reputation systems can ...
A Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is becoming a practical platform for pervasive social networking. For example, people chat with each other via MANET for instant social activities. How to help mobile users build up trust in pervasive social chatting is beco ...
Network coding has been proposed recently as an efficient method to increase network throughput by allowing network nodes to combine packets instead of simply forwarding them. However, packet combinations in the network may increase delay, complexity and e ...
