5G-XHaul: a converged optical and wireless solution for 5G transport networks
(2016)The common European Information and Communications Technology sector vision for 5G is that it should leverage on the strengths of both optical and wireless technologies. In the 5G context, a wide spectra of radio access ... -
Client and server games in peer-to-peer networks
(2009)We consider a content sharing network of noncooperative peers. The strategy set of each peer comprises, (i) client strategies, namely feasible request load splits to servers, and (ii) server strategies, namely scheduling ... -
CONTENT project: Considerations towards a cloud-based internetworking paradigm
(2013)Although cloud computing and the Software Defined Network (SDN) framework are fundamentally changing the way we think about network services, multi-domain and multitechnology problems are not sufficiently investigated. ... -
Detecting IEEE 802.11 MAC layer misbehavior in ad hoc networks: Robust strategies against individual and colluding attackers
(2007)Selfish behavior at the Medium Access (MAC) Layer can have devastating side effects on the performance of wireless networks, with effects similar to those of Denial of Service (DoS) attacks. In this paper we consider the ... -
Energy OPtimal ALgorithms for mobile Internet: Stochastic modeling, performance analysis and optimal control
(2011)EnergyOPAL research focused on algorithms which can enable an energy friendly future mobile Internet. Turning off the electronics of a wireless device is understood to be crucial for saving energy over idle periods. On the ... -
Evolutionary fuzzy multi-objective routing for wireless mobile ad hoc networks
(2004)The complexity involved in implementing multi-objective routing in computer networks has led to many researchers exploring alternate solutions with the use of heuristic based techniques. The rationale underlying the use ... -
FIJI: Fighting implicit jamming in 802.11 WLANs
(2009)The IEEE 802.11 protocol inherently provides the same long-term throughput to all the clients associated with a given access point (AP). In this paper, we first identify a clever, low-power jamming attack that can take ... -
Layered multicast rate control based on lagrangian relaxation and dynamic programming
(2004)In this paper, we address the rate control problem for layered multicast traffic, with the objective of solving a generalized throughput/fairness objective. Our approach is based on a combination of lagrangian relaxation ... -
Leveraging caching for internet-scale content-based publish/subscribe networks
(2011)This work is concerned with scaling decentralized content-based publish/subscribe (CBPS) networks for Internet-wide content distribution. A fundamental step for CBPS networks to reach the Internet-scale is to move from the ... -
Lightweight cross-layer control algorithms for fairness and energy efficiency in CDMA Ad-Hoc networks
(2006)We consider a CDMA wireless ad - hoc network in high SINR regime. We introduce a suite of cross - layer algorithms for joint flow control, routing, scheduling and power control. algorithms guarantee forwarding of all ... -
Maximum lifetime routing in wireless sensor networks
(2004)A routing problem in static wireless ad hoc networks is considered as it arises in a rapidly deployed, sensor based, monitoring system known as the wireless sensor network. Information obtained by the monitoring nodes needs ... -
OmniStore: Automating data management in a personal system comprising several portable devices
(2007)The ever growing amount of data generated and consumed on the move using portable devices gives rise to serious data management issues. The fact that each person may own and is likely to carry several such devices further ... -
On-line storage management with distributed decision making for content-centric networks
(2011)Content traffic proliferation in Internet makes more dire than ever the development of radical new network architectures, where information will be addressed by semantic attributes rather than the origin and destination ... -
Packetostatics: Deployment of massively dense sensor networks as an electrostatics problem
(2005)We investigate the spatial distribution of wireless nodes that can transport a given volume of traffic in a sensor network, while requiring the minimum number of wireless nodes. The traffic is created at a spatially ... -
Reputation-assisted utility maximization algorithms for peer-to-peer networks
(2008)Peer-to-peer networks are voluntary resource sharing systems among rational agents that are resource providers and consumers. While altruistic resource sharing is necessary for efficient operation, this can only be imposed ... -
Resource allocation and cross-layer control in wireless networks
(2006)Information flow in a telecommunication network is accomplished through the interaction of mechanisms at various design layers with the end goal of supporting the information exchange needs of the applications. In wireless ... -
A social-based approach for message dissemination in vehicular Ad Hoc networks
(2014)The spreading of messages in a vehicular network is an important task and finds many applications in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). A common problem to this direction is to select an appropriate set of vehicles ... -
Tabu-based heuristic approach for optimization of network evacuation contraflow
(2006)In urban evacuations, especially in response to an expected disaster, capacity reversibility (also known as contraflow) has been considered a workable strategy to reduce traffic congestion and to meet evacuation time ... -
Towards a collaborative ranking mechanism for efficient and personalized internet search service provisioning
(2011)The aim of this paper is, in accordance with efficient web search service operation objectives, to propose enhancements to the sophistication of the functionality that can be offered by search engine services. A meta-search ... -
The TREND experimental activities on "green" communication networks
(2013)Aimed at answering important questions about the energy demand of current telecom infrastructure and the design of sustainable and energy-efficient future networks, the research of a number of European partners is brought ...
