Abstract. End System Multicasting (ESM) is fast becoming a feasible alternative to IP multicasting. ESM approaches can be broadly classified into two main categories: (i) Tree firs...
We show that the "fractal" behavior of Internet traffic can be efficiently and practically employed to significantly reduce packetloss. Thanks to recent advances in the t...
We study in this paper two competing TCP connections that share a common bottleneck link. When congestion occurs, one (or both) connections will suffer a loss that will cause its t...

A common feature of congestion control protocols is the presence of information packets used to signal congestion. We address here the question of how frequently such protocols nee...
The most widespread Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs) are based today on the IEEE 802.11 standard and its various versions, especially the IEEE 802.11b. In this article we first...
The goal of this paper is to study pricing of differentiated services and its impact on the choice of service priority at equilibrium. We consider both TCP connections as well as n...

Packet-based optical access ring is becoming a promising solution in metropolitan networks. Its performance depends mainly on how optical resource sharing takes place among the dif...
In this paper we propose a new packet classification algorithm, which can substantially improve the performance of a classifier by decreasing the rulebase lookup latency. The algor...
