Internet of Things
Several teams are conducting research on the topic of Internet of Things, Smart Spaces, WSAN at LINCS. The team from UPMC is currently looking at fault and attack tolerance in self-organized distributed systems and networks, i.e. systems that must operate without human intervention. They are particularly interested in self-stabilization and...
Content Distribution and Services
Internet content distribution has, over the recent years, undergone profound and radical changes. Aside the traditional client-server mode of diffusion, lacking a wide support for IP multicast that is made complex by group management issues, new paradigms such as Content diffusion networks (CDN) or Peer-to-peer (P2P) have been proposed over...
Wireless Networks
This domain of research is expanding very fast. Members of LINCS played a pioneering role in developing spatial stochastic models of wireless networks. The approach consists in casting information-theoretic principles of communications into a random geometric context in order to obtain adequate stochastic-geometric or graph-theoretic models of wireless networks. More...
Metrology
More details will be added soon, please come back on this website or contact the LINCS staff for more information.
Network Theory
Network theory Communication networks have always been a remarkable source of inspiration for mathematicians and computer scientists. The works of Erlang on telephone networks gave birth to queuing theory, for instance, while those of Shannon on the first digital communications are considered as the starting point of information theory. Conversely,...
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence Overview The LINCS is strongly involved in research related to AI, from the most theoretical aspects (learning theory, sample complexity, information-theoretic bounds) to the development of open-source software (see the Python package scikit-network for graph analysis) and the application to real use cases (cyber-security, anomaly detection, automatic classification...
