Overlay networks are a technique to build a new network on top of an existing one. They are
a key tool to add functionality to existing networks, and are used in different layers of the …

Every peer-to-peer system is based on some overlay network connecting its peers. Many of
the overlay network concepts proposed in the scientific community are based on the concept …

The recent years have witnessed a wide spread proliferation of the Internet to encompass
multiple autonomous organizations, heterogeneous platforms and mobile and wireless …

Speed alone will not make future Internet applications secure. I propose a new networking
isolation capability, termed a virtual overlay network (VON). Such software-based virtual …

Nowadays, a very useful platform is becoming widely used to deploy new services and
applications in the Internet: the overlay networks. These networks create a virtual topology …

Mobile computing devices, industrial control systems, and service provider clouds often
need to be connected to each other over wide area networks. However, reliability, quality of …

We propose a novel two-tiered overlay network design called plateau. It has two levels: a
small upper-level that regulates entry of new nodes into the network, and a lower-level …

Probabilistic key pre-distribution schemes have recently emerged as major tools of
addressing secure routing challenge in wireless networks. In our previous work, we propose …

It is a widely accepted notion that the native layer of the current Internet has begun to
stagnate in terms of the services offered. Consequently, overlay networks have gained …

Delay-tolerant networking (DTN) is an approach to computer network architecture that seeks
to address the technical issues in heterogeneous networks that may lack continuous …
