In this paper, we study dynamic protocol update (DPU). Contrary to local code updates on-the-fly, DPU requires global coordination of local code replacements. We propose a novel solution to DPU. The key idea is to add a level of indirection between the ser ...
Many complex networks are only a part of larger systems, where a number of coexisting topologies interact and depend on each other. We introduce a layered model to facilitate the description and analysis of such systems. As an example of its application, w ...
Some impulse radio UWB (IR-UWB) networks may allow concurrent transmissions without power control (for example MAC protocols that do not use power control, or co-existing, non-coordinated piconets). In such cases, it has been proposed to mitigate multi-use ...
Providing reliable group communication is an ever recurring issue in distributed settings. In mobile ad hoc networks, this issue becomes more significant since all nodes act as peers, while the issue gets even more challenging due to highly dynamic and unp ...
A distributed algorithm comprises a collection of sequential-code entities, which are spread over different computers connected to a network. The process of designing a distributed algorithm is influenced by the assumptions we make on the computational env ...
In this paper we compare two approaches to the design of protocol frameworks -- tools for implementing modular network protocols. The most common approach uses events as the main abstraction for a local interaction between protocol modules. We argue that a ...
We propose a MAC protocol for very low radiated power (1 microwatt) ultra-wide band (UWB) mobile ad-hoc networks. Unlike traditional approaches, our protocol fully utilizes the specific nature of the physical layer of UWB. This makes it possible to reach a ...
We address programming abstractions for building protocols from smaller, reusable microprotocols. The existing protocol frameworks, such as Appia and Cactus, either restrict the amount of concurrency between microprotocols, or depend on the programmer, who ...
