Geolocation of Internet hosts enables a diverse and interesting new class of location-aware
applications. Previous measurement-based approaches use reference hosts, called …

We present a novel and complete tool-set for evaluating the delivery quality of MPEG video
transmissions in simulations of a network environment. This tool-set is based on the EvalVid …

… This article is dedicated to the memory of our dear co-worker Artur Ziviani, who passed
away while it was being peer-reviewed. Artur was a brilliant researcher and dedicated advisor. …

Graph-based models form a fundamental aspect of data representation in Data Sciences and
play a key role in modeling complex networked systems. In particular, recently there is an …

Despite the growing interest in cryptocurrencies, the delays incurred to confirm transactions
are one of the factors that hamper the wide adoption of systems such as Bitcoin. Bitcoin …

We propose a method for the Distributed Assessment of the Closeness CEntrality Ranking (DACCER)
in complex networks. DACCER computes centrality based only on localized …

Indiscriminated packet discards strongly degrade the quality perceived by end users of MPEG
video transmissions. This paper investigates different Quality of Service (QoS) schemes …

Detection is a crucial step towards efficiently diagnosing network traffic anomalies within an
autonomous system (AS). We propose the adoption of nonextensive entropy - a one-…

The unprecedented size of the human population, along with its associated economic activities,
has an ever‐increasing impact on global environments. Across the world, countries are …

There is an ever-increasing interest in investigating dynamics in time-varying graphs (TVGs).
Nevertheless, so far, the notion of centrality in TVG scenarios usually refers to metrics that …
