Network quality of service (NQoS) of IP networks is unpredictable and impacts the quality of
networked multimedia services. Adaptive voice and video schemes are therefore vital for the …

This paper presents a distributed video streaming framework using unbalanced multiple
description coding (MDC) and unequal error protection. In the proposed video streaming …

User cooperation exploits nearby mobile devices as relays and offers an opportunity to
enable multipath transmission for multi-homed mobile devices, even when there is no …

Broadcast authentication is an important application in sensor networks. Public Key
Cryptography (PKC) is desirable for this application, but due to the resource constraints on …

A TCP/RED (Transmission Control Protocol/Random Early Detection) system with multiple-
bottleneck links could be unstable even if its system parameters are set the same as those in …

We study several properties of binary-feedback congestion control in rate-based
applications. We first derive necessary conditions for generic binary-feedback congestion …

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) consist of miniature sensor nodes deployed to gather
vital information about an area of interest. The ability of these networks to monitor remote …

With the development of data centers, the traditional TCP/IP network stacks have become
inadequate in addressing the high bandwidth and low latency demands of diverse upper …

The growing number of electric vehicles (EVs) in the low-voltage distribution grid increases
the load and thereby the risk of overloading and damaging grid assets. Since energy …

A few low-rate, TCP-targeted Denial-of-Service (DoS) attacks have been recently proposed,
including the Shrew attack, Reduction of Quality (RoQ) attack, and Pulsing DoS (PDoS) …
