Abstract— In a peer-to-peer network, nodes are typically required to route packets for each other. This leads to a problem of “free-loaders,” nodes that use the network but r...
Abstract. The development of scalable parallel database systems requires the design of efficient algorithms for the join operation which is the most frequent and expensive operatio...
Abstract— Emerging spread spectrum high-speed data networks utilize multiple channels via orthogonal codes or frequency-hopping patterns such that multiple users can transmit con...
Abstract—The link layer of an optical direct-detection code-division multiple-access (CDMA) packet network is considered. Two different protocols that need pretransmission coordi...
This paper addresses the problem of self localization of mobile devices. In particular, each device combines noisy measurements of its absolute position with distance measurements...
