Delay-constrained streaming from a moving platform is of paramount importance for applications such as the remote control of drones, where a low-delay video stream is required in order to provide visual feedback to the pilot while providing high quality vi ...
The IEEE 802.15.4 standard is poised to become the global standard for low data rate, low energy consumption wireless sensor networks (WSN). By assigning the same sets of contention access parameters for all data frames and nodes, the contention access per ...
To become a credible alternative to specialized hardware, general-purpose networking needs to offer not only flexibility, but also predictable performance. Recent projects have demonstrated that general-purpose multicore hardware is capable of high-perform ...

In this work, we consider four problems in the context of Internet traffic control. The first problem is to understand when and why a sender that implements an equation-based rate control would be TCP-friendly, or not—a sender is said to be TCP-friendly if ...
This paper addresses the problem of fair allocation of bandwidth resources on lossy channels in hybrid heterogeneous networks. It discusses more particularly the ability of window-based congestion control to support non-congestion related losses. We invest ...
We consider the definition of the Expedited Forwarding Per-Hop Behaviour (EF PHB) as given in RFC 2598\ \cite{rfc2598}, and its impact on worst case end-to-end delay jitter. On one hand, the definition in RFC 2598 can be used to predict extremely low end-t ...
We study an approach to quality-of-service (QoS) that offers end-users the choice between two service classes defined according to their level of transmission protection. The fully protected (FP) class offers end-users a guarantee of survivability in the c ...
Packet Scale Rate Guarantee (PSRG) is a generic node model which underlies the definition of Expedited Forwarding (EF) proposed in the context of Internet Differentiated Services. For the case of FIFO nodes, PSRG is equivalent to the well-understood concep ...
Packet Scale Rate Guarantee (PSRG) is a node model used by IETF for Expedited Forwarding, a priority service defined in the context of Differentiated Services. We review probabilistic performance bounds that apply to PSRG nodes, and improve a previous boun ...

In this work, we address the transport of high quality voice over the Internet with a particular concern for delays. Transport of interactive audio over IP networks often suffers from packet loss and variations in the network delay (jitter). Forward Error ...
