Community Building with Co-located Social Media: A Field Experiment with Syrian Refugees

Denis Gillet, Adrian Christian Holzer

While co-located social media previously has been employed to enhance interaction in community building activities in previous work, its range of effects have not been quantitatively described. In this study, we introduce a co-located social media app call ...

Exploratory Topology Modelling of Form-Active Hybrid Structures

Mark Pauly, Anders Holden Deleuran

The development of novel form-active hybrid structures (FAHS) is impeded by a lack of modelling tools that allow for exploratory topology modelling of shaped assemblies. We present a flexible and real-time computational design modelling pipeline developed ...

Tracking freeriders in gossip-based content dissemination systems

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Maxime Monod, Kévin Clément Huguenin

Gossip-based protocols have proven very efficient for disseminating high-bandwidth content such as video streams in a peer-to-peer fashion. However, for the protocols to work, nodes are required to collaborate by devoting a fraction of their upload bandwid ...

Insomnia in the Access (or How to Curb Access Network Related Energy Consumption)

Dejan Kostic, Marco Canini, Alberto López

Access networks include modems, home gateways, and DSL Access Multiplexers (DSLAMs), and are responsible for 70-80% of total network-based energy consumption. In this paper, we take an in-depth look at the problem of greening access networks, identify root ...

Stretching Gossip with Live Streaming

Rachid Guerraoui, Anne-Marie Kermarrec, Maxime Monod, Davide Frey

Gossip-based information dissemination protocols are considered easy to deploy, scalable and resilient to network dynamics. They are also considered highly ﬂexible, namely tunable at will to increase their robustness and adapt to churn. So far however, the ...
