Forming, in a decentralized fashion, an optimal network topology while balancing multiple, possibly conflicting objectives like cost, high performance, security and resiliency to viruses is a challenging endeavor. In this paper, we take a game-formation approach to network design where each player, for instance an autonomous system in the...

Cascading failures are one of the main reasons for blackouts in electrical power grids. Stable power supply requires a robust design of the power grid topology. Currently, the impact of the grid structure on the grid robustness is mainly assessed by purely topological metrics, that fail to capture the fundamental properties of the electrical...

After the early land rush and fast exponential growth of online social networking platforms, concerns about how data placed in online social networks may be exploited and abused have begun to appear among mainstream users. Social networking sites have responded to these new public sentiments by introducing privacy filters to their site, allowing...

We propose Gossipico, a gossip algorithm to average, sum or find minima and maxima over node values in a large, distributed, and dynamic network. Unlike previous work, Gossipico provides a continuous estimate of, for example, the number of nodes, even when the network becomes disconnected. Gossipico converges quickly due to the introduction of a...

The effect of virus spreading in a telecommunication network, where a certain curing strategy is deployed, can be captured by epidemic models. In the N-intertwined model proposed and studied in [1], [2], the probability of each node to be infected depends on the curing and infection rate of its neighbors. In this paper, we consider the case...

The key feature of online social networks is the ability of users to become active, make friends and interact with those around them. Such interaction is typically perceived as critical to these platforms; therefore, a significant share of research has investigated the characteristics of social links, friendship relations, community structure,...

Biological networks exhibit intriguing topological properties such as small-worldness. In this paper, we investigate whether the topology of a metabolic network is related to its robustness. We do so by perturbing a metabolic system in silico, one reaction at a time and studying the correlations between growth, as predicted by flux balance...

The recent widespread of the new Mexican flu and SARS show the high dependency on contemporary traveling patterns. The air transport network is recognized as an important channel of epidemic propagation for different diseases. In order to predict epidemic spreading and the influence of protection measures, a mathematical model of the Susceptible...

Physical impairments, such as noise and signal distortions, negatively affect the quality of information transfer in optical networks. The effect of physical impairments predominantly augments with distance and bit rate of the signal to the point that it becomes detrimental to the information transfer. To reverse the effect of physical...

Communication networks are prone to virus and worms spreading and cascading failures. Recently, a number of social networking worms have spread over public Web sites. Another example is error propagation in routing tables, such as in BGP tables. The immunization and error curing applied to these scenarios are not fast enough. There have been...

We consider the partitioning of m-dimensional lattice graphs using Fiedler’s approach [1], that requires the determination of the eigenvector belonging to the second smallest eigenvalue of the Laplacian. We examine the general m-dimensional lattice and, in particular, the special cases: the 1-dimensional path graph PN and the 2-dimensional...

More and more free multi-party video conferencing applications are readily available over the Internet and both Server-to-Client (S/C) or Peer-to-Peer (P2P) technologies are used. Investigating their mechanisms, analyzing their system performance, and measuring their quality are important objectives for researchers, developers and end users. In...

The Internet consists of a constantly evolving complex hierarchical architecture where routers are grouped into autonomous systems (ASes) that interconnect to provide global connectivity. Routing is generally performed in a decentralized fashion, where each router determines the route to the destination based on the information gathered from...

We examine the influence of heterogeneous curing rates for a SIS model, used for malware spreading on the Internet, information dissemination in unreliable networks, and propagation of failures in networks. The topology structures considered are the regular graph which represents the homogenous network structures and the complete bi-partite...

In recent years, a number of commercial peer-to-peer TV (P2PTV) applications have been launched. Yet, their mechanisms and characteristics are unknown. In this paper, we study SopCast, a typical proprietary P2PTV system. Treating SopCast as a black box, we perform a set of experiments that are suitable to analyze SopCast in depth. We attempt to...

Security breaches and attacks are critical problems in today’s networking. A key-point is that the security of each host depends not only on the protection strategies it chooses to adopt but also on those chosen by other hosts in the network. The spread of Internet worms and viruses is only one example. This class of problems has two aspects....
