Future communication networks need to harness the available spectrum more efficiently to
cater the requirements of the ever-increasing digital devices. Higher data rate with low …

This survey paper shows the state of the art in security mechanisms, where a deep review of
the current research and the status of this topic is carried out. We start by introducing …

Software defined networking has garnered large attention due to its potential to virtualize
services in the Internet, introducing flexibility in the buffering, scheduling, processing, and …

State-of-the-art in network coding for wireless, meshed networks typically considers two
problems separately. First, the problem of providing reliability for a single session. Second …

We consider a relay node that stochastically receives packets from two opposing flows.
Whenever opportunities exist, the relay performs network coding to efficiently transmit …

This paper presents and characterizes the performance of CORE, a protocol that brings
together the efficiency in spectrum usage of inter–session network coding schemes and the …

In this work we present a flexible Network Coding (NC) module integrated within the ns-3
framework. We have exploited it to implement an inter-flow coding protocol, in which …

Given that next generation networks are expected to be populated by a large number of
devices, there is a need for quick deployment and evaluation of alternative mechanisms to …

Abstract The introduction of Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA) marked an important juncture
in the evolution of wireless networks. DSA is a spectrum assignment paradigm where …

Network Coding (NC) for Wireless Mesh Network (WMN) has received a lot of attention from
the research community in recent years due to its ability to provide higher throughput …
