Bandwidth tradeoff between TCP and link-level FEC

TL;DR: By analysis and simulations, this paper shows how TCP performance varies as a function of the amount of FEC, and studies in detail this bandwidth tradeoff between TCP and FEC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Maximum damage malware attack in mobile wireless networks

TL;DR: It is proved that it is optimal for the attacker to defer killing of the infective nodes in the propagation phase until reaching a certain time and then start the slaughter with maximum effort, and a framework for identifying intelligent defense strategies that can limit the damage by appropriately selecting network parameters is revealed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flow control using the theory of zero sum Markov games

TL;DR: It is shown that there exists an optimal stationary policy (such that the decisions depend only on the actual number of customers in the queue); it is of a threshold type, and it uses randomization in at most one state.
Journal ArticleDOI

TCP in presence of bursty losses

TL;DR: This paper analyzes the performance of a TCP-like flow control mechanism in a lossy environment, and shows that the time average of the transmission rate is indeed sensitive to the distribution of losses, and not just to the average loss rate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decentralized Protection Strategies Against SIS Epidemics in Networks

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider decentralized optimal protection strategies when a virus is propagating over a network through an SIS epidemic process, where each node in the network can fully protect itself from infection at a constant cost, or the node can use recovery software, once it is infected.
