The increasing diffusion of mobile computing and of portable devices with wireless connectivity identifies new challenging scenarios for service provisioning. The access from devi...
Several recent studies have indicated that TCP performance degrades significantly in mobile ad hoc networks. This paper examines how bad TCP may perform in such networks and prov...
In this paper, we propose a new protection scheme, which we term partial path protection (PPP), to select endto-end backup paths using local information about network failures. PP...
TCP(α,β) protocols trade the congestion window increase value α for the decrease ratio β , to generate smoother traffic patterns and to maintain a friendly behavior. In this p...
There is growing interest in wireless personal area networks built from portable devices equipped with shortrange radio interfaces such as Bluetooth. These small networks (called ...
