Resource allocation is a usual problem that must be faced during a distributed system design. Despite the large number of algorithms proposed in literature to solve this problem, most papers lack of detailed descriptions ...

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of two WMN architectures considering throughput, delay, jitter and fairness index metrics. For simulations, we used ns-3. We compare the performance for two architectures considering ...

[ANGLÈS] The Thorup and Zwick routing scheme (usually referred as TZ scheme) is a very well-known compact routing scheme which aims at reducing the scalability problem of routing in Internet. In this work, we propose a ...

This paper presents a layered framework to measure the reordering introduced by contention resolution strategies in OBS networks. In particular, characterization is based on the reordering metrics proposed by the IETF IPPM ...

At present time, the maturity of P2P research field has pushed through new problems such us those related with security. For that reason, security starts to become one of the key issues when evaluating a P2P system and it ...

The fast increment in the number of IoT (Internet of Things) devices is accelerating the research on new solutions to make cloud services scalable. In this context, the novel concept of fog computing as well as the combined ...

The Stream Control Transmission Protocol (SCTP) is a relatively recent general-purpose transport layer protocol for IP networks that has been introduced as a complement to the well-established TCP and UDP transport protocols. ...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs)consists of several resource constrained sensor nodes distributed over an specific geographical area. WSNs are typically energy constraint due to the fact the sensor nodes are battery ...

The aim of this project is to implement a smart sensor worldwide network based on IEEE 1451 family of standards which can provide multiple interoperable clients to access geospatial and sensor data for national local ...
