'J.P. Fernández-Palacios' 'Jesús Folgueira'] Abstract—Network softwarization will permit the dynamic configuration of the transport infrastructure, in order to facilitate the adaptation needed for future advanced services. However, the promise of full flexibility can only be achieved through proper levels of…

—Modern telecommunication networks face an increasing complexity due to the rapidly growing number of networked devices and rising amounts of data. The literature advocates for self-managing networks as a means to tackle the resulting challenges. While self-managing networks provide potential solutions to these…

Network slicing is a powerful paradigm for network operators to support use cases with widely diverse requirements atop a common infrastructure. As 5G standards are completed, and commercial solutions mature, operators need to start thinking about how to integrate network slicing capabilities in their assets, so that…

This paper introduces a linear operator for the purposes of quantifying the spectral properties of transport within resistive trees, such as airflow in lung airway networks. The operator, which we call the Maury matrix, acts only on the terminal nodes of the tree and is equivalent to the adjacency matrix of a complete…

Alchemical free energy campaigns can be planned using graph theory by building up networks that contain nodes representing molecules that are connected by possible transformations as edges. We introduce Konnektor, an open-source Python package, for systematically planning, modifying, and analyzing free energy…

Due to the scarcity of quantitative details about biological phenomena, quantitative modeling in systems biology can be compromised, especially at the subcellular scale. One way to get around this is qualitative modeling because it requires few to no quantitative information. One of the most popular qualitative…

Wireless networks are very popular nowadays. Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) that uses the IEEE 802.11 standard and WiMAX (Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access) that uses the IEEE 802.16 standard are networks that we want to explore. WiMAX has been developed over 10 years, but it is still unknown to most…

Stochastic Actor-Oriented Models (SAOMs) were designed in the social network setting to capture network dynamics representing a variety of influences on network change. The standard framework assumes the observed networks are free of false positive and false negative edges, which may be an unrealistic assumption. We…
