Large-scale distributed computing systems are often limited by the global interconnection network through which the localized computing sites communicate.
Telecommunication networks and power grids are parallel hierarchical maintenance structures with system-wide reach.
In its Framework and Roadmap for Smart Grid Interoperability Standards, US National Institute of Standards and Technology declares that a 21st century clean energy economy demands a 21st century el
We are interested in the following problem. Suppose we have an analog data source which emits a sequence of statistically independent Gaussian variates at a rate of R per second.
We analyze a network of nodes in which pairs communicate over a shared wireless medium.
With the advent of very high speeds, cleaner transmission media and richer mix of applications in packet networks (LANs, MANs, WANs), protocols in the network and in the end systems are undergoing
Information-theoretic models for relaying are developed and applied to wireline and wireless networks. For wireline networks with node constraints, data compression is shown to improve rates.
THE MODEL Shannon's theory of communication, shows how to defeat noise introduced in a communication medium by restricting the repertoire of transmitted signals to a discrete set.1 If the messages
HE problems of cryptography and secrecy systems furnish an interesting application of communication theory. 1 In this paper a theory of secrecy systems is developed.
Coherent wave propagation in disordered media gives rise to many fascinating phenomena in areas as diverse as conduction of electrons through nanostructures and light scattering from granular mater
