Combinatorial Channel Signature Modulation for Wireless ad-hoc Networks
In this paper we introduce a novel modulation and multiplexing method which
facilitates highly efficient and simultaneous communication between multiple
terminals in wireless ad-hoc networks. We term this method Combinatorial
Channel Signature Modulation (CCSM). The CCSM method is particularly efficient
in situations where communicating nodes operate in highly time dispersive
environments. This is all achieved with a minimal MAC layer overhead, since all
users are allowed to transmit and receive at the same time/frequency (full
simultaneous duplex). The CCSM method has its roots in sparse modelling and the
receiver is based on compressive sampling techniques. Towards this end, we
develop a new low complexity algorithm termed Group Subspace Pursuit. Our
analysis suggests that CCSM at least doubles the throughput when compared to
the state-of-the art.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figures, to appear in IEEE International Conference on

Optimal Networks from Error Correcting Codes
To address growth challenges facing large Data Centers and supercomputing
clusters a new construction is presented for scalable, high throughput, low
latency networks. The resulting networks require 1.5-5 times fewer switches,
2-6 times fewer cables, have 1.2-2 times lower latency and correspondingly
lower congestion and packet losses than the best present or proposed networks
providing the same number of ports at the same total bisection. These advantage
ratios increase with network size. The key new ingredient is the exact
equivalence discovered between the problem of maximizing network bisection for
large classes of practically interesting Cayley graphs and the problem of
maximizing codeword distance for linear error correcting codes. Resulting
translation recipe converts existent optimal error correcting codes into
optimal throughput networks.Comment: 14 pages, accepted at ANCS 2013 conferenc
