Modeling and performance analysis of bittorrentlike peer-to-peer networks
- In SIGCOMM
, 2004
"... In this paper, we develop simple models to study the performance of BitTorrent, a second generation peerto-peer (P2P) application. We first present a simple fluid model and study the scalability, performance and efficiency of such a file-sharing mechanism. We then consider the built-in incentive mec ..."

mechanism of Bit-Torrent and study its effect on network performance. We also provide numerical results based on both simulations and real traces obtained from the Internet. 1
A Survey of active network Research
- IEEE Communications
, 1997
"... Active networks are a novel approach to network architecture in which the switches of the network perform customized computations on the messages flowing through them. This approach is motivated by both lead user applications, which perform user-driven computation at nodes within the network today, ..."

Coverage Control for Mobile Sensing Networks
, 2002
"... This paper presents control and coordination algorithms for groups of vehicles. The focus is on autonomous vehicle networks performing distributed sensing tasks where each vehicle plays the role of a mobile tunable sensor. The paper proposes gradient descent algorithms for a class of utility functio ..."

Alliances and networks
"... This paper introduces a social network perspective to the study of strategic alliances. It extends prior research, which has primarily considered alliances as dyadic exchanges and paid less attention to the fact that key precursors, processes, and outcomes associated with alliances can be defined an ..."

and shaped in important ways by the social networks within which most firms are embedded. It identifies five key issues for the study of alliances: (1) the formation of alliances, (2) the choice of governance structure, (3) the dynamic evolution of alliances, (4) the performance of alliances, and (5
Data networks
, 1992
"... a b s t r a c t In this paper we illustrate the core technologies at the basis of the European SPADnet project (www. spadnet.eu), and present the corresponding first results. SPADnet is aimed at a new generation of MRI-compatible, scalable large area image sensors, based on CMOS technology, that are ..."

, that are networked to perform gamma-ray detection and coincidence to be used primarily in (Time-of-Flight) Positron Emission Tomography (PET). The project innovates in several areas of PET systems, from optical coupling to single-photon sensor architectures, from intelligent ring networks to reconstruction
Performance comparison of two on-demand routing protocols for ad hoc networks
, 2000
"... Ad hoc networks are characterized by multihop wireless connectivity, frequently changing network topology and the need for efficient dynamic routing protocols. We compare the performance of two prominent ondemand routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks — Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) and Ad Ho ..."

Understanding packet delivery performance in dense wireless sensor networks
, 2003
"... Wireless sensor networks promise fine-grain monitoring in a wide variety of environments. Many of these environments (e.g., indoor environments or habitats) can be harsh for wireless communication. From a networking perspective, the most basic aspect of wireless communication is the packet delivery ..."

In this paper, we report on a systematic medium-scale (up to sixty nodes) measurement of packet delivery in three
Service Disciplines for Guaranteed Performance Service in Packet-Switching Networks
- Proceedings of the IEEE
, 1995
"... While today’s computer networks support only best-effort service, future packet-switching integrated-services networks will have to support real-time communication services that allow clients to transport information with performance guarantees expressed in terms of delay, delay jitter, throughput, ..."

The sources and consequences of embeddedness for the economic performance of organizations: The network effect
- American Sociological Review
, 1996
"... In this paper, I attempt to advance the concept of embeddedness beyond the level of a programmatic statement by developing a formulation that specifies how embeddedness and network structure affect economic action. On the basis of existing theory and original ethnographies of 23 apparel firms, I dev ..."
