Future “smart electric vehicles,” expected to evolve from emerging electric and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (EV & PHEV) are becoming increasingly attractive. However, the current electric grid is not considered capable of handling the power demand increase required by a large number of charging stations, especially during peak loads. Furthermore, the envisioned critical infrastructure for such vehicles must include the capability for information exchange involving energy availability, distances, congestion levels and possibly, spot ...

While enthusiasm of developers in proposing novel services is reshaping the current Internet, there is a body of work that is examining issues related to network-level as well as application and service-layer topics of analysis, design, monitoring, and experimentation. Indeed, top-down interplay between services and networking creates unique modeling, design, and implementation challenges. The coupling of the above two aspects is required to enable the evolution of the Internet into the Internet of the Future, a pervasive ...

ABSTRACT LTE-A plans the adoption of cooperative relaying in order to extend coverage and improve Quality-of-Service of future-generation mobile wireless networks. Some very recent state-of-the-art contributions have studied the cooperative relaying in LTE-A from a merely theoretical viewpoint, while real experiments are needed in order to understand the impact of using the actual communication channel. In the present paper, we propose the usage of open-source GNU radio tools to build a full-software-defined radio (SDR) implementation of cooperative relaying for an LTE-A downlink connection. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness, tested in open-field, of the cooperative relaying in terms of augmented coverage and improved throughput, with a substantial added value provided by the SDR implementation in terms both of algorithmic flexibility and adaptive network reconfigurability.

Abstract A significant improvement of block-based motion estimation strategies is presented, which supports fast computation and VLBR coding. For each block, a spatio-temporal context is defined based on nearest neighbors in the current and previous frames, and a prediction list is built. Then, the best matching vector within the list is chosen as an estimation of the block motion. An additional correction vector can be sent when the prediction error exceeds a threshold. Bit rate saving is achieved through an adaptive ...

Recent technological advances are bringing networking a step forward towards the goal of service provisioning on anytime, anywhere basis - while ensuring instant and secure communications. However, this innovation is bounded by the constraints included into original Internet design where such notions as support of mobility, security of communications, and active networking were not anticipated. For that reason, this technological advancement came at a price of the increased network complexity and reduced data transfer performance in heterogeneous network environment. The fundamental cause of inefficiency lies in the difficulty of network configuration and management to follow the ever changing users’ and applications’ needs.
In this framework, the seminar aims at providing an overview on the concepts of cognitive networking, providing some interesting approaches and achieved results, in order to outline the existence of an evolutionary approach to bring the benefits of self-configuration and self-management in TCP/IP networks.
