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 ...

Coexistence of Multiple HomePlug AV Logical Networks: A Measurement Based Study

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Alaeddine El Fawal, Zhang Liu

HomePlug AV (HPAV) was designed to provide high speed in-home communication with 200Mbps PHY rate, with the goal to overcome various noises over power wires and to jump from one phase to a neighboring one. A HomePlug AV Logical Networks (AVLN) is defined b ...

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 ...

Synchronization for Impulse-Radio UWB With Energy-Detection and Multi-User Interference: Algorithms and Application to IEEE 802.15.4a

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ruben Merz, Manuel Flury

Energy-detection (ED) receivers can take advantage of the ranging and multipath resistance capabilities of impulse-radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) physical layers at a much lower complexity than coherent receivers. However, ED receivers are extremely vulnera ...

Bringing Stability to Wireless Mesh Networks

Adel Aziz

Wireless mesh networks were designed as a mean to rapidly deliver large-scale communication capabilities without the support of any prior infrastructure. Among the different properties of mesh networks, the self-organizing feature is particularly interesti ...

Energy Consumption Comparison Between Macro-Micro and Public Femto Deployment in a Plausible LTE Network

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Ramin Khalili, Miroslav Popovic

We study the energy consumptions of two strategies that increase the capacity of an LTE network: (1) the deployment of redundant macro and micro base stations by the operator at locations where the traffic is high, and (2) the deployment of publicly access ...

A high-performance chitosan-based double layer proton exchange membrane with reduced methanol crossover

Mohammad Mahdi Hasani-Sadrabadi

A novel double layer proton exchange membrane (PEM) comprising a layer of structurally modified chitosan, as a methanol barrier layer, coated on Nafion (R) 112 was prepared and assessed for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) applications. Scanning electron m ...

Effectiveness of Distance-Decreasing Attacks Against Impulse Radio Ranging

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Panagiotis Papadimitratos, Marcin Poturalski, Manuel Flury

We expose the vulnerability of an emerging wireless ranging technology, impulse radio ultra-wide band (IR-UWB), to distance-decreasing attacks on the physical communication layer (PHY). These attacks violate the security of secure ranging protocols that al ...

Network Tomography on Correlated Links

Patrick Thiran, Denisa Gabriela Ghita

Network tomography establishes linear relationships between the characteristics of individual links and those of end-to-end paths. It has been proved that these relationships can be used to infer the characteristics of links from end-to-end measurements, p ...

Optoelectronically mismatched oligophenylethynyl-naphthalenediimide SHJ architectures

Natalie Renuka Banerji, Stefan Matile, Eric Vauthey

The objective of this study was to evaluate the possibility of photoinduced stack/rod electron transfer in surface “zipper” architectures composed of stacks of blue (B) naphthalenediimides (NDIs) along strings of oligophenylethynyl (OPE) rods. The synthesi ...
