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 ...
The impact of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) networks on the Internet landscape is undisputed. It has led to a series of new applications, e.g., as part of the so-called Web 2.0. The shift from the classical client-server based paradigm of the Internet, with a clear d ...
In sufficiently large heterogeneous overlays message loss and delays are likely to occur. This has a significant impact on overlay routing, especially on longer paths. The existing solutions to this problem rely on message redundancy to mask the loss and d ...
Experimental studies have shown that electing a leader based on measurements of the underlying communication network can be beneficial. We use this approach to study the prob- lem of electing a leader that is eventually not only correct (as captured by the ...

Waiting time in any network is often a costly and hence a bad experience. Therefore, to avoid jamming regions becomes essential in the optimization of traffic flows. In this regard, the conception and the control of complex networks supporting flows of uni ...
As wireless and mobile technologies are becoming increasingly pervasive, an uninterrupted connectivity in mobile devices is becoming a necessity rather than a luxury. When dealing with challenged networking environments, this necessity becomes harder to ac ...

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 thesis, we study methods to detect, localize and overcome performance problems experienced by end-users in communication networks. These problems are extremely difficult to solve when the only available information are end-to-end data. We first con ...
