TCP and Explicit Congestion Notification

by Sally Floyd - In: ACM Computer Communication Review, V. 24 N , 1994
"... This paper discusses the use of Explicit Congestion Notification (ECN) mechanisms in the TCP/IP protocol. The first part proposes new guidelines for TCP’s response to ECN mechanisms (e.g., Source Quench packets, ECN fields in packet headers). Next, using simulations, we explore the benefits and draw ..."

The design and implementation of an intentional naming system

by William Adjie-Winoto, Elliot Schwartz, Hari Balakrishnan, Jeremy Lilley - 17TH ACM SYMPOSIUM ON OPERATING SYSTEMS PRINCIPLES (SOSP '99) PUBLISHED AS OPERATING SYSTEMS REVIEW, 34(5):186--201, DEC. 1999 , 1999
"... This paper presents the design and implementation of the Intentional Naming System (INS), a resource discovery and service location system for dynamic and mobile networks of devices and computers. Such environments require a naming system that is (i) expressive, to describe and make requests based o ..."

Loopy belief propagation for approximate inference: An empirical study. In:

by Kevin P Murphy , Yair Weiss , Michael I Jordan - Proceedings of Uncertainty in AI, , 1999
"... Abstract Recently, researchers have demonstrated that "loopy belief propagation" -the use of Pearl's polytree algorithm in a Bayesian network with loops -can perform well in the context of error-correcting codes. The most dramatic instance of this is the near Shannon-limit performanc ..."

Transfer of Cognitive Skill

by John R. Anderson , 1989
"... A framework for skill acquisition is proposed that includes two major stages in the development of a cognitive skill: a declarative stage in which facts about the skill domain are interpreted and a procedural stage in which the domain knowledge is directly embodied in procedures for performing the s ..."

the skill. This general framework has been instantiated in the ACT system in which facts are encoded in a propositional network and procedures are encoded as productions. Knowledge compilation is the process by which the skill transits from the declarative stage to the procedural stage. It consists

Lottery Scheduling: Flexible Proportional-Share Resource Management

by Carl A. Waldspurger, William E. Weihl , 1994
"... This paper presents lottery scheduling, a novel randomized resource allocation mechanism. Lottery scheduling provides efficient, responsive control over the relative execution rates of computations. Such control is beyond the capabilities of conventional schedulers, and is desirable in systems that ..."

Dynamics of Random Early Detection

by Dong Lin, Robert Morris - In Proceedings of ACM SIGCOMM , 1997
"... In this paper we evaluate the effectiveness of Random Early Detection (RED) over traffic types categorized as nonadaptive, fragile and robust, according to their responses to congestion. We point out that RED allows unfair bandwidth sharing when a mixture of the three traffic types shares a link Thi ..."

Intrusion Detection in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks

by Yongguang Zhang, Wenke Lee , 2000
"... As the recent denial-of-service attacks on several major Internet sites have shown us, no open computer network is immune from intrusions. The wireless ad-hoc network is particularly vulnerable due to its features of open medium, dynamic changing topology, cooperative algorithms, lack of centralized ..."

We then describe the new intrusion detection and response mechanisms that we are developing for wireless ad-hoc networks. 1. INTRODUCTION A wireless ad

Bullet: High Bandwidth Data Dissemination Using an Overlay Mesh

by Dejan Kostic, Adolfo Rodriguez, Jeannie Albrecht, Amin Vahdat , 2003
"... In recent years, overlay networks have become an effective alternative to IP multicast for efficient point to multipoint communication across the Internet. Typically, nodes self-organize with the goal of forming an efficient overlay tree, one that meets performance targets without placing undue burd ..."

Key contributions of this work include: i) an algorithm that sends data to di#erent points in the overlay

Where do interorganizational networks come from?

by Ranjay Gulati, Martin Gargiulo , 1998
"... Organizations enter alliances with each other to access critical resources, but they rely on information from the network of prior alliances to determine with whom to cooperate. These new alliances modify the existing network, prompting an endogenous dynamic between organizational action and network ..."
