—Distributed transmit beamforming has recently been proposed as a technique in which several single-antenna sources cooperate to form a virtual antenna array and simultaneously t...
Available bandwidth estimation is useful for route selection in overlay networks, QoS verification, and traffic engineering. Recent years have seen a surge in interest in availab...
—Characterizing user churn has become an important topic in studying P2P networks, both in theoretical analysis and system design. Recent work [26] has shown that direct sampling...
In this paper we present the first implementation of a P2P content distribution system that uses Network Coding. Using results from live trials with several hundred nodes, we pro...
