Research paper thumbnail of Classification of Markov sources through joint string complexity: Theory and experiments

String complexity is defined as the cardinality of a set of all distinct words (factors) of a given string. For two strings, we define the joint string complexity as the cardinality of the set of words which both strings have in common. In this paper we analyze the average joint complexity when both strings are generated by two Markov sources. We provide fast converging asymptotic expansions and present some experimental results showing usefulness of the joint complexity to text discrimination.

Research paper thumbnail of On Space-Time Capacity Limits in Mobile and Delay Tolerant Networks

We define the capacity of a journey (i.e., a path in space and time, from a source to a destination) as the maximum amount of data that can be transferred from the source to the destination in the given journey. Combining a stochastic model (conveying all possible journeys) and an analysis of the durations of the nodes' encounters, we study the properties of journeys that maximize the space-time information propagation capacity, in bit-meters per second. More specifically, we provide theoretical lower and upper bounds on the information propagation speed, as a function of the journey capacity. In the particular case of random way-point-like models (i.e., when nodes move for a distance of the order of the network domain size before changing direction), we show that, for relatively large journey capacities, the information propagation speed is of the same order as the mobile node speed. This implies that, surprisingly, in sparse but large-scale mobile DTNs, the space-time information propagation capacity in bit-meters per second remains proportional to the mobile node speed and to the size of the transported data bundles, when the bundles are relatively large. We also verify that all our analytical bounds are accurate in several simulation scenarios.

In such networks there is no guarantee that a fully connected path between source and destination exists at any time, rendering traditional routing protocols unable to deliver messages between hosts. There do however exist a number of scenarios where connectivity is intermittent, but where the possibility of communication still is desirable. Thus, there is a need for a way to route through such networks. We propose PROPHET, a probabilistic routing protocol for such networks and compare it to the earlier presented Epidemic Routing protocol through simulations. We show that PROPHET is able to deliver more messages than Epidemic Routing with a lower communication overhead.

For a given pattern w, we enumerate exactly and asymptotically (d, k) sequences of length n that do not contain a given word w. We use techniques of analytic algorithms such as generating functions, combinatorial calculus, and complex asymptotics.

While most of the research is dedicated to the design of routing protocols, very few properties of such networks are known. In a recent paper [6], the authors provided analytical upper bounds for the information propagation speed in DTNs when they are modeled as two-dimensional Unit Disk Graphs. In this paper, we extend this study to other models by using analytical tools to derive theoretical upper-bounds of the information propagation speed. Firstly, we will present results for DTNs mapped in a space of dimension D, where D varies from 1 to 3. Secondly, we will depart from the Unit Disk Graph model to consider a more realistic model where a node captures a packet sent at distance r with probability p(r).

We derive a generic scaling law on the delay, which provides us with lower bounds: the average delay from a source to a destination and the average broadcast delay are both Ω Rn √ n v n , where n is the number of nodes in the network, v n the maximum node speed, and R n the radio range.

We accomplish it by extending findings from our 1995 paper [3]. We present a new simplified proof of the Central Limit Theorem for the number of phrases in the LZ'78 algorithm. As in our 1995 paper, here we first analyze the asymptotic behavior of the total path length in a digital search tree (a DST) built from independent sequences. Then we present simplified proofs and extend our analysis of LZ'78 algorithm to include new results on the convergence of moments, moderate and large deviations, and redundancy analysis.

Knuth concerning a recurrence arising in the satisfiability problem. Knuth’s recurrence resembles recurrences arising in the analysis of tries, in particular PATRICIA tries, and asymmetric leader election. We solve Knuth’s recurrence exactly and asymptotically, using analytic techniques such as the Mellin transform and analytic depoissonization.

Research paper thumbnail of Multi-lane vehicle-to-vehicle networks with time-varying radio ranges: Information propagation speed properties

We focus on the impact of time-varying radio ranges and of multiple lanes of vehicles, varying in speed and in density. We assess the existence of a vehicle density threshold under which information propagates on average at the fastest vehicle speed and above which information propagates dramatically faster. We first prove that no such phase transition occurs if there is only one lane, regardless of the density of vehicles, when one takes into account real-time radio communication range variations at the MAC layer. We then prove that, on the other hand, a phase transition exists as soon as there are multiple lanes with different vehicle speeds and appropriate densities. We characterize conditions under which the phase transition occurs and we derive bounds on the corresponding threshold as a simple relationship between the vehicle density on the fastest lane and the sum of the vehicle densities on the other lanes. Our results intrinsically encompass a wide range of vehicular network scenarios, including one-way and two-way roads, as well as special cases such as road side units and/or parked cars being used as relays. We confirm our analytical results using simulations carried out in several environments (ONE and Maple).
