Traditional approaches to reliably transmit information over an error-prone network employ
either forward error correction (FEC) or retransmission techniques. In this paper, we propose …

Some forms of ad-hoc networks need to operate in extremely performance-challenged
environments where end-to-end connectivity is rare. Such environments can be found for …

In this article we present CodeCast, a network-coding-based ad hoc multicast protocol.
CodeCast is especially well-suited for multimedia applications with low-loss, low-latency …

The marriage of network coding and wireless packet networks is a natural and attractive
one. So, despite network coding being a still nascent field, a considerable body of work on …

We consider the problem of throughput-optimal packet dissemination, in the presence of an
arbitrary mix of unicast, broadcast, multicast, and anycast traffic, in an arbitrary wireless …

In an energy-constraint wireless sensor network (WSN), the sensor nodes near the Sink
deplete their energy quickly due to heavy traffic and create a bottleneck zone. In a large …

Reliable broadcasting data to multiple receivers over lossy wireless channels is challenging
due to the heterogeneity of the wireless link conditions. Automatic Repeat-reQuest (ARQ) …

Network coding has been receiving much attention recently for its ability to improve network
throughput and enhance network robustness. In this paper, we investigate the design of …

In recent years, Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) have become the premier choice for
many homes and enterprises. WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) …

In this paper we consider practical dissemination algorithms exploiting network coding for
data broadcasting in ad hoc wireless networks. For an efficient design, we analyze issues …
