Considering that current end to end communication services are not adapted for supporting efficiently distributed multimedia application, this paper introduces a new family of gene...
Abstract. Endpoint admission control is a mechanism for achieving scalable services by pushing quality-of-service functionality to end hosts. In particular, hosts probe the network...
Mobile Internet access is becoming extremely popular because users depend on the Internet for many activities in their daily routine. Satellites are well suited for mobile Interne...
The fast adoption of IP-based communications for hand-held devices equipped with wireless interfaces is creating new challenges for the Internet evolution. Users expect flexible ac...
— In this paper we show that significant simplicity can be exploited for pricing-based control of large networks. We first consider a general loss network with Poisson arrivals...
Abstract. For time-constrained applications, repair-server-based active local recovery approaches can be valuable in providing low-latency reliable multicast service. However, an a...
Recently, a TCP-friendly, single-rate multicast congestion control scheme called pgmcc was introduced by one of the authors. In this paper, we study the fairness of pgmcc in a vari...
