Over the last decade, the Internet has grown at a tremendous speed in both size and complexity. Nowadays, a large number of important services – for instance e-commerce, healthcare and many others – depend on the availability of the underlying network. Clearly, service interruptions due to network problems may have a severe impact. On the long way towards the Future Internet, the complexity wil...

Today’s mobile terminals have several access network interfaces. New protocols have been proposed during the last few years to enable the concurrent use of multiple access paths for data transmission. In practice, the use of different access technologies is subject to different interconnection costs, and mobile users have preferences on interfaces jointly depending on performance and cost facto...

A global solution for the provision of QoS in IPng sites must include ISP selection based on per-application requirements. In this article we present a new site-local architecture for QoS-driven ISP selection in multi-homed domains, performed in a per application basis. This architecture proposes the novel use of existent network services, a new type of routing header, and the modification of a...

We present an architecture that enables network connection sharing in an environment of mobile, wireless, collaborating hosts. Dual-homed hosts with wireless connection to the Internet share their connection with other hosts of the collaborating group by acting as temporal gateways. The system aims to increase data availability and quality of service while achieving load balancing across the ga...

Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy a home-based breathing exercise program on dyspnea, quality life, depression and sleeping disorders in patients with COVID-19 after discharge from hospital.
 Methods: completed total 60 participants. intervention group (n=39) received homed-based including controlled techniques low-intensity upper lower extremity exercises. control...

Content-based publish/subscrbe systems provide an useful alternative to traditional address-based communication due to their ability to decouple communication between participants. It has remained a challenge to design a scalable overlay supporting the complexity of content-based networks, while satisfying the desirable properties large distributed systems should have. This paper presents a new...

Prior investigation of video streaming over wireless networks has assumed a single access point and a homogeneous wireless technology. With multi-homed devices and the harmonizing influence of IEEE 802.21, it is now becoming possible to offer seamless video streaming. The paper presents a video streaming transport scheme that is more capable of exploiting the expected reduced latencies of IPTV ...
