Inspiring a new generation of innovators
Andrew Viterbi ’56, SM ’57 has been a pioneer in wireless communications for more than half a century.
Turning the tables on wireless interference
Cognitive coexistence radio and other technologies will help alleviate spectrum congestion for wireless devices.
No-wait data centers
New system could reduce data-transmission delays across server farms by 99.6 percent.
New approach to vertex connectivity could maximize networks’ bandwidth
Technique advances understanding of a basic concept in graph theory, paralleling advances in edge connectivity.
Reliable communication, unreliable networks
A new model of wireless networks that better represents the real world could lead to more robust communications protocols.
Guaranteed delivery — in ad hoc networks
A new algorithm for message dissemination in decentralized networks is faster than its predecessors but, unlike them, guarantees delivery.
