The basic operation in such a network is the systematic gathering (with or without in-network aggregation) and transmitting of sensed data to a base station for further processing....
The timely detection that a monitored variable has crossed a given threshold is a fundamental requirement for many network management applications. A challenge is the detection of ...

In this paper, we show the feasibility of real-time flow monitoring with controllable accuracy in today’s IP networks. Our approach is based on Netflow and A-GAP. A-GAP is a prot...
Aggregating multiple 802.11 Access Point (AP) backhauls using a single-radio WLAN card has been considered as a way of bypassing the backhaul capacity limit. However, current AP a...

Networked, distributed real world sensing is an increasingly prominent topic in computing and has quickly expanded from resource constrained “sensor networks” measuring simple...
Abstract. Optical Transport Networks (OTN) with automatical switching capabilities are named ASON. Hierarchical routing is required in the ASON recommendations to achieve scalabili...
—Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) is a popular protocol for routing within an autonomous system (AS) domain. In order to scale for large networks containing hundreds and thousands...
Recently, there has been a growing interest in gossip-based protocols that employ randomized communication to ensure robust information dissemination. In this paper, we present a ...
Abstract-If data traffic were Poisson, increases in the amount of traffic aggregated on a network would rapidly decrease the relative size of bursts. The discovery of pervasive lon...
