Mathematical optimization is one of the cornerstones of modern engineering research and
practice. Yet, throughout all application domains, mathematical optimization is, for the most …

Network protocols in layered architectures have historically been obtained on an ad hoc
basis, and many of the recent cross-layer designs are also conducted through piecemeal …

Modern communication networks have become very complicated and highly dynamic, which
makes them hard to model, predict and control. In this paper, we develop a novel experience …

We describe FAST TCP, a new TCP congestion control algorithm for high-speed long-
latency networks, from design to implementation. We highlight the approach taken by FAST …

Apple pomace is a substantial by-product created during the production of apple juice.
Apple pomace is commonly thrown away as waste, which harms the environment and could …

Dynamic multi-path routing has the potential to improve the reliability and performance of a
communication network, but carries a risk. Routing needs to respond quickly to achieve the …

Satellite and wireless networks operate over time varying channels that depend on
attenuation conditions, power allocation decisions, and inter-channel interference. In order …

We describe a variant of TCP, called FAST, that can sustain high throughput and utilization
at multigigabits per second over large distances. We present the motivation, review the …

This report presents the major contributions and the possible future challenges in the
emerging area of Networked Control Systems. Activities in this field can be categorized into …

Applications requiring real-time communication (RTC) between Internet peers are ever
increasing. RTC requires not only congestion control but also minimization of queuing …
