    abstract = {The OMF Measurement Library (OML) is an instrumentation system which enables an experimenter to process any type of measurements from distributed applications and collect them in a unified way. We present a comprehensive study of the performance of this library. The analysis focuses on the behaviour, accuracy and precision of instrumented applications, as well as the background footprint such as CPU load and memory usage. To this end, we have modified typical network measurement tools (Iperf) and libraries (libtrace, libsigar) to use OML as their reporting channel. Following extensive experiments, we find little or no negative impact of OML when comparing the OML-enhanced tools to their original versions. Moreover, in the case of Iperf, when we find significant differences, they are positive, with improvements in the accuracy of both the network probing and jitter measurements. We discuss the implications of using OML in the context of experiment-based networking research and give recommendations on its use and the analysis of the produced results.},

We argue the benefits of a holistic approach which considers user- and application-centric metrics such as quality, energy consumption and monetary cost, rather than the commonly used network-centric metrics. We thus introduce the multihomed flow management problem which combines network selection, flow distribution and application flow awareness. We formulate it as a constrained optimisation problem and compare it to commonly used techniques: single network selection and load balancing. For selected interactive applications, we use empirical network measurements to evaluate the optimal solutions obtained by the three approaches. We show that, by exploiting the flexibility of application parameters, it is possible to achieve the potentially conflicting goals of maintaining high application quality while reducing both the power consumption and cost of network use.},

@phdthesis{2011mehani_adaptive_use_mobile_networks_phd,
    abstract = {With the widespread availability of multiple wireless network technologies, mobile com-
puting devices can benefit from almost uninterrupted connectivity by changing network
attachments as they move. This however raises the problem of the selection method to be
used for the choice of the wireless networks to associate with, in order to provide the best
performance. Moreover, mobility events may result in poor application quality, due to
either a disruption in connectivity during the handover or the heterogeneity of the charac-
teristic of different access networks. To address these problems, this thesis introduces and
studies all three elements (observation, decision, action) of a control framework to enable
better use of available network resources.
We first show that a decision mechanism which directly considers the relevant user- and
application-centric metrics is more appropriate than using the common network metrics-
based indirect approach. This mechanism is used to control the entire network stack
of the mobile node in a coordinated way, rather than individual components, to avoid
potentially conflicting combinations. Our results indicate that, by exploiting the flexibility
of application parameters, it is possible to maintain high application quality while reducing
both the power consumption and access price.
We then introduce a mobility-aware extension to the {TCP}-Friendly Rate Control mechan-
ism ({TFRC}), as an action element, to address the disruption in connectivity resulting from
the mobility events. We propose to suspend the transmission before disconnections and to
probe the network after reconnections. Simulations demonstrate how this enables faster
recovery after disconnected periods as well as a significantly improved adaptation to the
newly available network conditions. When used with the Datagram Congestion Control
Protocol ({DCCP}), experiments show that it provides better support for real-time applica-
tions for which the user-perceived quality is very dependent on the immediate transmission
rate.
Finally, we present an experimental process to evaluate the {OMF} Measurement Library
({OML}), a lightweight instrumentation and reporting tool which we propose to use as the
observation element of our framework. We show that this library does not significantly
impact the performance of the instrumented applications, while accurately reporting the
observed metrics.},

		network usage. We propose an enhancement to the TCP-Friendly
		Rate Control protocol to overcome this issue. Our contribution
		proposes to suspend the data transfer, in a way similar to
		Freeze-TCP, when an upcoming disconnection is predicted.
		Furthermore, a probing mechanism is introduced to enable fast
		adaptation to new network conditions. We present a description
		of the additional freezing and resuming mechanisms.  This
		proposal has been implemented in ns-2.  Simulation results are
		thus compared to the regular behavior.",

	abstract	= "Trying to provide safer and more efficient
		transportation solutions, the need for reliable and efficient
		communications is increasing in ITS (Intelligent Transportation
		Systems) use cases such as collaborative road data collection,
		driver information systems, infotainment or fully driverless
		vehicles. Applications that rely on vehicle-infrastructure
		(V2I) and vehicle-vehicle (V2V) communications have different
		requirements and would benefit from a widely deployed common
		standard for the exchange of data. IP (Internet Protocol) is
		thus advocated as the convergence layer between the various
		available wireless technologies available on the market.
		This paper surveys the methods employed in the Imara team to
		provide a stable communication environment allowing driverless
		vehicles to interact with each other in several scenarios where
		information sharing is required. An account of how the
		solutions are integrated and how well they behave together in
		live experiments is given.",

	abstract	= "In the context of driverless automatic road vehicles,
		one interesting and non-trivial problem is that of the passing
		of a crossroads. At an intersection between two roads, the risk
		of collision is much higher due to the presence of other
		vehicles not going in the same direction, and potentially
		crossing each other’s path.  It is necessary to find safe
		algorithms allowing every vehicle to pass this sensitive point
		without colliding.  Moreover, it is important, while doing so,
		to keep efficiency in mind, for the vehicles not to wait
		forever before entering and passing the intersection. Every
		vehicle must pass the crossroad as fast as the safe
		possibilities allow.  This 6 months internship, done with the
		Imara team, tried to come up with an efficient algorithm for
		crossroads passing.  A simulator has been written, giving the
		possibility to test various algorithms and efficiency
		comparisons have been made in order to determine which
		algorithm was the most promising, and where were the behaviors
		that could still be improved.  Finally, an algorithm based on a
		reservation of critical points has seemed to be the most
		interesting. Details about its inner working and implementation
		are given, as well as preliminary results.",
