—We investigate the problem of flow optimization in a parallel relay network which consists of a single source sending information to a single destination through multiple relay...
Virtual private networks (VPNs) allow two or more parties to communicate securely over a public network. Using cryptographic algorithms and protocols, VPNs provide security servic...
In this paper we analyze a novel paradigm of reliable communications which is not based on the traditional timeout-and-retransmit mechanism of TCP. Our approach, which we call FBP...
