Adaptive connection admission and flow control: quality of service with high utilisation
(IEEE, 1994)In this paper, we use adaptive feedback and adaptive feedforward control methodologies to avoid congestion at high server utilisation. This addresses the combined connection admission and flow control problem (generic ...

Adaptive network-aided session support in context-aware converged mobile networks
(2012)The increase of networking complexity requires the design of new performance optimisation schemes for delivering sessions to users under different conditions. This paper addresses context-aware, adaptive multiparty sessions ...

Algorithmic mechanisms for internet supercomputing under unreliable communication
(2011)This work, using a game-theoretic approach, considers Internet-based computations, where a master processor assigns, over the Internet, a computational task to a set of untrusted worker processors, and collects their ...

Article
Approximate Equilibria and Ball Fusion
(2003)We consider selfish routing over a network consisting of m parallel links through which n selfish users route their traffic trying to minimize their own expected latency. We study the class of mixed strategies in which the ...

Bilateral routing in emergency response networks
(IEEE Computer Society, 2013)An emergency response networking scenario is considered, in which immediately after the strike of a disaster, mobile terminals autonomously form an ad-hoc network. Distress nodes, use this network to disseminate help-requests ...

Blocking reduction for distributed transaction processing within MANETs
(2009)Atomic commit protocols for distributed transactions in mobile ad-hoc networks have to consider message delays and network failures. We consider ad-hoc network scenarios, in which participants hold embedded databases and ...

A catalog of ∃ℝ-complete decision problems about Nash equilibria in multi-player games
(Schloss Dagstuhl- Leibniz-Zentrum fur Informatik GmbH, Dagstuhl Publishing, 2016)[Schaefer and Štefankovic, Theory of Computing Systems, 2015] provided an explicit formulation of ∃ℝ as the class capturing the complexity of deciding the Existential Theory of the Reals, and established that deciding, ...

A comparative study of protocols for efficient data propagation in smart dust networks
(2003)Smart Dust is comprised of a vast number of ultra-small fully autonomous computing and communication devices, with very restricted energy and computing capabilities, that co-operate to accomplish a large sensing task. Smart ...

Complexity of rational and irrational Nash equilibria
(2011)We introduce two new decision problems, denoted as ∃ RATIONAL NASH and ∃ IRRATIONAL NASH, pertinent to the rationality and irrationality, respectively, of Nash equilibria for (finite) strategic games. These problems ask, ...

Computing Nash equilibria for scheduling on restricted parallel links
(2010)We consider the problem of routing nusers on m parallel links under the restriction that each user may only be routed on a link from a certain set of allowed links for the user. So, this problem is equivalent to the ...

A congestion control algorithm for max-min resource allocation and bounded queue sizes
(2004)This paper deals with the congestion control problem in computer networks which is viewed as a resource allocation problem constrained by the additional requirement that the queue sizes need to be bounded. We propose a ...

Congestion control in differentiated services networks using Fuzzy-RED
(2003)Network congestion control remains a critical and high priority issue. The rapid growth of the Internet and increased demand to use the Internet for time-sensitive voice and video applications necessitate the design and ...

Article
Cost sharing mechanisms for fair pricing of resource usage
(2008)We propose a simple and intuitive cost mechanism which assigns costs for the competitive usage of m resources by n selfish agents. Each agent has an individual demand
