The increasing need of protocol development environments and network performance evaluation tools gives rise to the research of flexible, scalable, and accurate network emulators. The desired network emulator should be able to facilitate the emulation of either wireline or wireless networks. In the case when network topology is critical to the underlying network protocol, the emulator should pr...

This article reviews progress in cooperative communication networks. Our survey is by no means exhaustive. Instead, we assemble a representative sample of recent results to serve as a roadmap for the area. Our emphasis is on wireless networks, but many of the results apply to cooperation in wireline networks and mixed wireless/wireline networks. We intend our presentation to be a tutorial for t...

Studies have shown the presence of considerable amounts of redundancy in Internet traffic content. Recent works are exploring possibilities for exploiting network traffic redundancy, but these works invariably focus on fixed wireline networks. Unlike wireline networks, wireless and mobile environments exhibit unique challenges and opportunities in the context of redundancy elimination. In this ...

On the mid-Norwegian margin, extensive rifting and subsequent deposition of thick Cretaceous Cenozoic sediments have buried traditional Upper Jurassic organic-rich shales too deep. Consequently, these are overmature spent in deep basins on margin. The absence well-control, variable seismic quality particularly, great burial depth, makes it difficult to identify alternative Lower units. By combi...

This research focuses on studying the Surma Group sediments with an integrated approach of using wireline logs and 2D seismic data from Sylhet structure outcrop analogy Zaflong-Tamabil-Jaintiapur area to explain geological evolution in context sequence stratigraphic framework its implications identify hidden potential hydrocarbon traps that remains overlooked. The 'SYL-07' well divided encounte...

In this paper, we propose a bandwidth-efficient multicast mechanism for heterogeneous wireless networks. We reduce the bandwidth cost of an l (IP) multicast tree by adaptively selecting the cell and the wireless technology for each mobile host to join the multicast group. Our mechanism enables more mobile hosts to cluster together and leads to the use of fewer cells to save the scarce wireless ...
