Tree networks are widely applied in sensor networks of Internet of Things (IoTs). This paper
proposes an efficient tree-based self-organizing protocol (ETSP) for sensor networks of IoTs …

The convergence of computer-communication networks towards an all-IP integrated network
has transformed Internet in a commercial commodity that has stimulated an un-precedent …

The available bandwidth of a network path impacts the performance of many applications,
such as VoIP calls, video streaming and P2P content distribution systems. Several tools for …

This paper presents a unique probing scheme, a rate adjustment algorithm, and a modified
excursion detection algorithm (EDA) for estimating the available bandwidth (ABW) of an end …

There has usually been a clean separation between networks and the applications that use
them. Applications send packets over a simple socket API; the network delivers them …

With the increasing popularity of smartphones and netbooks, more and more applications
are developed for the mobile platform. Notwithstanding the recent advances in mobile …

Measuring available bandwidth and capacity represents an essential requirement for a
multitude of network applications spanning from traffic engineering and admission control to …

The spread of residential broadband Internet access is raising the question of how to
measure Internet speed. We argue that available bandwidth is a key metric of access link …

Active end-to-end available bandwidth estimation is intrusive, expensive, inaccurate, and
does not work well with bursty cross traffic or on high capacity links. Yet, it is important for …
