– Peer-to-peer is a popular distributed system. Mobile ad hoc networks and peer-to-peer file sharing systems both lack fixed infrastructure support and hold no a-priori knowledge...
We study how protocol design for various functionalities within a communication network architecture can be viewed as a distributed resource allocation problem. This involves unde...
—Hybrid networks are a promising architecture that builds ad hoc, wireless networks around the existing cellular telephony infrastructure. In this paper we present DST, a routing...

Abstract-- This article proposes a scheme for bandwidth allocation in wireless ad hoc networks. The quality of service (QoS) levels for each end-to-end flow are expressed using a r...
Abstract—Cross-layer optimization including congestion control, routing, and scheduling has shown dramatic throughput improvement over layered designs for wireless networks. In p...
