Store-and-forward had been the predominant technique for transmitting information through
a network until its optimality was refuted by network coding theory. Network coding offers a …

This article surveys all known fields of network coding theory and leads the reader through
the antecedents of the network coding theory to the most recent results, considering also …

We present a distributed random linear network coding approach for transmission and
compression of information in general multisource multicast networks. Network nodes …

This paper proposes COPE, a new architecture for wireless mesh networks. In addition to
forwarding packets, routers mix (ie, code) packets from different sources to increase the …

Opportunistic routing is a recent technique that achieves high throughput in the face of lossy
wireless links. The current opportunistic routing protocol, ExOR, ties the MAC with routing …

We show that mutual exchange of independent information between two nodes in a wireless
network can be efficiently performed by exploiting network coding and the physicallayer …

Network coding substantially increases network throughput. But since it involves mixing of
information inside the network, a single corrupted packet generated by a malicious node can …

We consider the use of random linear network coding in lossy packet networks. In particular,
we consider the following simple strategy: nodes store the packets that they receive and …

Network coding promises to significantly impact the way communications networks are
designed, operated, and understood. This book presents a unified and intuitive overview of …
