— Transferring data reliably from Mars to Earth stations is becoming an appealing challenge in the design of interplanetary networks. In this view, the use of CCSDS-based protoco...
— We consider the design of the MAC layer for low power, low data-rate, impulse-radio ultra-wide band (IRUWB) networks. In such networks, the primary concern is energy consumptio...

TCP is the transport protocol used predominantly in the Internet as well as in peer-to-peer networks. However, peerto-peer networks exhibit very different characteristics from tho...
One of the typical features of distributed systems is the heterogeneity of its components (e.g. geographical spreading and different platform architectures), leading to interopera...
