- A Game Theoretic Analysis of Intrusion Detection in Access Control Systems
- This paper presents a game-theoretic analysis of intrusion detection in access control systems. A security game between the attacker and the intrusion detection system is investigated both in finite and continuous-kernel versions, where in the latter case players are associated with specific cost functions. The distributed virtual sensor network based...

- A Control-Based Middleware Framework for Quality of Service Adaptations
- In heterogeneous environments with performance variations present, multiple applications compete and share a limited amount of system resources, and suffer from variations in resource availability. These complex applications are desired to adapt themselves and to adjust their resource demands dynamically. This paper presents a novel Middleware Control Framework to enhance...

- Expanding Horizon and Capture Effect in RFID Systems
- RFID has been the subject of much research recently, which yielded very efficient singulation algorithms, such as Tree Walking Algorithms, or framed slotted Aloha. However, there is still room for improvement in the case of multiple readers, and also in the power efficiency of singulation algorithms. This paper addresses two...

- A Framework for Querying Sensor Networks Using Mobile Devices
- An interplay between mobile devices and static sensor nodes is envisioned in the near future. This will enable a heterogeneous design space that can offset the stringent resource and power constraints encountered in traditional static sensor networks by taking advantage of the more powerful mobile devices. As such, this paper...

- The RTT Distribution of TCP Flows in the Internet and Its Impact on TCPÂ-Based Flow Control
- It is well known that the performance of a TCP flow is affected by its Round-Trip Time RTT, i.e., the elapsed time between the instant a packet is released by the source to the instant the corresponding ack is received by the source. The distribution of RTTs can dramatically affect...

- Task Switching in Mobile Wireless Sensor Networks
- Mobile wireless sensor networks have the ability to monitor wide geographical areas. A suitable distribution of sensors can provide an optimal coverage according to a predefined criterion of the area of interest. On the other hand, mobile sensors can also move to the point of interest if necessary, thereby possibly...

- TCP-Illinois: A Loss and Delay-Based Congestion Control Algorithm for High-Speed Networks
- This paper introduces a new congestion control algorithm for high speed networks, called TCP-Illinois. TCP-Illinois uses packet loss information to determine whether the window size should be increased or decreased, and uses queueing delay information to determine the amount of increment or decrement. TCP-Illinois achieves high throughput, allocates the network...

- Multilevel Codes for OFDM-Like Modulation Over Underspread Fading Channels
- This paper studies the problem of modulation and coding for doubly dispersive, i.e., time and frequency selective fading channels. Using the recent result that under-spread linear systems are approximately diagonalized by biorthogonal Weyl-Heisenberg bases, it arrives at a canonical formulation of modulation and code design. For coherent reception with maximum...
