We provide a design of a control and management plane for data networks using the abstraction of 4D architecture, utilizing and extending 4D’s concept of a logically centralized...
Aggregation of data values plays an important role on distributed computations, in particular over peer-to-peer and sensor networks, as it can provide a summary of some global sys...
—A unique challenge in P2P network is that the peer dynamics (departure or failure) cause unavoidable disruption to the downstream peers. While many works have been dedicated to ...
Abstract—Directional antennas are expected to provide significant improvements over omni-directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks. Directional MAC protocols, however, int...
— Routing policies used in the Internet tend to be restrictive limiting communication between source-destination pairs to one route, when often better alternates exist. To avoid ...
