The success of new scientific areas can be assessed by their potential in contributing to new
theoretical approaches and in applications to real-world problems. Complex networks have …

Inspired by empirical studies of networked systems such as the Internet, social networks,
and biological networks, researchers have in recent years developed a variety of techniques …

Ensembles of distributed, heterogeneous resources, or Computational Grids, have emerged
as popular platforms for deploying large-scale and resource-intensive applications. Large …

Cyclic redundancy codes (CRCs) provide a first line of defense against data corruption in
many networks. Unfortunately, many commonly used CRC polynomials provide significantly …

We study percolation on networks, which is used as a model of the resilience of networked
systems such as the Internet to attack or failure and as a simple model of the spread of …

Resource location (or discovery) is a fundamental service for resource-sharing
environments: given desired resource attributes, the service returns locations of matching …

The LoRa technology has emerged as an interesting solution for low power, long range IoT
applications by proposing multiple” degrees of freedom” at the physical layer. This flexibility …

Despite recent excitement generated by the peer-to-peer (P2P) paradigm and the
surprisingly rapid deployment of some P2P applications, there are few quantitative …

Internet traffic is experiencing a shift from Web traffic to file swapping traffic. Today a
significant part of Internet traffic is generated by peer-to-peer applications, mostly by the …

Web caches, content distribution networks, peer-to-peer file sharing networks, distributed file
systems, and data grids all have in common that they involve a community of users who …
