TLDR
The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes on multi-hop paths and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position.Abstract:
This paper explores a model for the operation of an ad hoc mobile network. The model incorporates incentives for users to act as transit nodes on multi-hop paths and to be rewarded with their own ability to send traffic. The paper explores consequences of the model by means of fluid-level simulations of a network and illustrates the way in which network resources are allocated to users according to their geographical position.read more

Robust incentive techniques for peer-to-peer networks
TL;DR: This work model the P2P system using the Generalized Prisoner's Dilemma, and proposes the Reciprocative decision function as the basis of a family of incentives techniques that can drive a system of strategic users to nearly optimal levels of cooperation.

Using game theory to analyze wireless ad hoc networks
Vivek Srivastava,J. Neel,Allen B. MacKenzie,Rekha Menon,Luiz A. DaSilva,J.E. Hicks,Jeffrey H. Reed,Robert P. Gilles +7 more
TL;DR: This article describes how various interactions in wireless ad hoc networks can be modeled as a game, which allows the analysis of existing protocols and resource management schemes, as well as the design of equilibrium-inducing mechanisms that provide incentives for individual users to behave in socially-constructive ways.

Free-riding and whitewashing in peer-to-peer systems
TL;DR: A model to study the phenomenon of free-riding and free-identities in peer-to-peer systems finds that imposing penalty on all users that join the system is effective under many scenarios and that system performance degrades significantly only when the turnover rate among users is high.

End-to-end congestion control for the internet: delays and stability
Ramesh Johari,David Kim Hong Tan +1 more
TL;DR: Stability results for a fluid flow model of end-to-end Internet congestion control and criteria for local stability and rate of convergence are completely characterized for a single resource, single user system.

Models for a self–managed Internet
TL;DR: It is argued that queueing delays may become small in comparison with propagation delays, and that differentiation between traffic classes within the network may become redundant, as a result of rapidly growing communications capacity for the evolution of the Internet.

Downlink resource allocation and pricing for wireless networks
Peter Marbach,Randall A. Berry +1 more
TL;DR: This paper considers resource allocation and pricing for the downlink of a wireless network, and considers a suboptimal scheme which does not require knowledge of the users' utility functions, and shows that this scheme is asymptotically optimal, in the limit of large demand.

Optimal flow control and routing in multi-path networks
TL;DR: Two flow control algorithms for networks with multiple paths between each source-destination pair that naturally decomposes the overall decision into flow control and routing and can be implemented as simply a source-based mechanism in which no link algorithm nor feedback is needed.

Ying Qiu,Peter Marbach +1 more
TL;DR: An iterative price and rate adaption algorithm is proposed that converges to a socially optimal bandwidth allocation and a numerical case study is used to illustrate the results.
