— This paper studies multicast application overlay networks in a repeated-game framework. In these overlays, users have both the motivation and the means to alter their position...
An experimental study of MANET using 802.11b has shown that there exist several configurations where this standard does not guarantee fairness for the channel access. In this pap...
In this paper we consider the problem of designing load balancing protocols in distributed systems where the participants (e.g. computers, users) are capable of manipulating the l...
Forward Error Correction (FEC) has been proposed as a technique for implementing efficient reliable multicast (RM). However, FEC incurs costs in encode/decode delay and implementa...
The paper presents a fail-safe mobility management and a collision prevention platform for a group of asynchronous cooperative mobile robots. The fail-safe platform consists of a ...
