Secure Neighbor Discovery and Ranging in Wireless Networks

Marcin Poturalski

This thesis addresses the security of two fundamental elements of wireless networking: neighbor discovery and ranging. Neighbor discovery consists in discovering devices available for direct communication or in physical proximity. Ranging, or distance boun ...

A Measurement-Based Algorithm to Maximize the Utility of Wireless Networks

Patrick Thiran, Julien Pierre Sacha Herzen, Ruben Merz, Adel Aziz

The goal of jointly providing fairness and efficiency in wireless networks can be seen as the problem of maximizing a given utility function. The main difficulty when solving this problem is that the capacity region of wireless networks is typically unknow ...

Automating the Testing of OpenFlow Applications

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Jennifer Rexford

Software-defined networking, and the emergence of OpenFlow-capable switches, enables a wide range of new network functionality. However, enhanced programmability inevitably leads to more software faults (or bugs). We believe that tools for testing OpenFlow ...

Resource Utilisation Analysis in WDM Backbone Networks

Sébastien Rumley, Christian Gaumier

Circuit-switched backbone networks are appealing especially due to their low switching cost. However, some of their links may be poorly utilised with respect to the available capacity. Grooming can be used to improve this utilisation: optically switched li ...

Concurrent Multipath Transferring in IP Networks: Two IP-level solutions for TCP and UDP

Maysam Yabandeh

Having multiple network interfaces or gateways available, the Internet users can transfer their data through multiple paths to achieve load balancing, fault-tolerance, and more aggregate bandwidth. However, transferring the packets of the same flow over mu ...

Neighbor discovery with reception status feedback to transmitters

Ramin Khalili

Neighbor discovery is essential for the process of self-organization of a wireless network, where almost all routing and medium access protocols need knowledge of one-hop neighbors. In this paper we study the problem of neighbor discovery in a static and s ...

Castor: Scalable Secure Routing for Ad Hoc Networks

Karl Aberer, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Wojciech Galuba, Zoran Despotovic

Wireless ad hoc networks are inherently vulnerable, as any node can disrupt the communication of potentially any other node in the network. Many solutions to this problem have been proposed. In this paper, we take a fresh and comprehensive approach that ad ...

Interference Robustness and Security of Impulse-Radio Ultra-Wide Band Networks

Manuel Flury

In this thesis we study Impulse-Radio Ultra-Wide Band (IR-UWB), a physical layer radio technology offering many features that make it a promising choice for future short-range wireless networks. The challenges in such networks are many, ranging from the co ...

Robustness to failures in two-layer communication networks

Maciej Kurant

A close look at many existing systems reveals their two- or multi-layer nature, where a number of coexisting networks interact and depend on each other. For instance, in the Internet, any application-level graph (such as a peer-to-peer network) is mapped o ...

On uncoordinated wireless ad-hoc networks

Alaeddine El Fawal

Emerging pervasive wireless networks, pocket switched networks, Internet of things, vehicular networks and even sensor networks present very challenging communication circumstances. They might involve up to several hundreds of wireless devices with mobilit ...
