Fair electronic exchange using biometrics
… obtain what they expected or neither one does. Protocols that facilitate such transactions are known as “fair exchange protocols”. We analyze one such protocol by Micali that demonstrates fair contract signing, where two parties exchange their commitments over an already negotiated contract. In …

Designing a higher layer protocol for small distributed microcontroller systems using the control area network protocol
… microcontroller systems using a well-established network protocol: the Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol which, currently, is widely used in the automation industries. Steps were taken to investigate three popular HLPs based on the CAN protocol: namely. Smart Distributed System (SDS), …

A framework for improving internet end-to-end performance and availability using multi-path overlay networks
Application-layer overlay networks have recently emerged as a promising platform to deploy additional services over the Internet. A virtual network of overlay nodes can be used to regulate traffic flows of an underlay network, without modifying the underlay network infrastructure. As a result, an …

Throughput optimization in MPR-capable multi-hop wireless networks
… of multiple packets by a node in wireless networks. This capability has the potential of improving the performance of multi-hop wireless networks by a logarithmic factor with respect to current technologies. However, to fully exploit multiple packet reception (MPR) capability, new routing …

Characterisation of end-to-end performance for web-based file server respositories
… Introduces some concepts for evaluating network behaviour: a path instability parameter for analyzing different TCP connections; a minimum RTT delay and a minimum typical path for estimating path characteristics between a client and application servers.
