Biometric applications, such as person re-identification (ReID), are often deployed on energy constrained devices. While recent ReID methods prioritize high retrieval performance, they often come with large computational costs and high…
The integration of permissioned blockchain such as Hyperledger fabric (HF) and Industrial internet of Things (IIoT) has opened new opportunities for interdependent supply chain partners to improve their performance through data sharing and…
We consider the data shuffling problem in a distributed learning system, in which a master node is connected to a set of worker nodes, via a shared link, in order to communicate a set of files to the worker nodes. The master node has access…
We consider the problem of geographically distributed data storage in a network of servers (or nodes) where the nodes are connected to each other via communication links having certain round-trip times (RTTs). Each node serves a specific…
The rapid development of the mobile Internet and the Internet of Things is leading to a diversification of user devices and the emergence of new mobile applications on a regular basis. Such applications include those that are…
A current trend in networking and cloud computing is to provide compute resources over widely dispersed places exemplified by initiatives like Network Function Virtualisation. This paves the way for a widespread service deployment and can…
Monitoring tasks, such as anomaly and DDoS detection, require identifying frequent flow aggregates based on common IP prefixes. These are known as \emph{hierarchical heavy hitters} (HHH), where the hierarchy is determined based on the type…
This article documents the HashKitty platform, a distributed solution for password analysis based on the hashcat tool, designed to improve efficiency in both offensive and defensive security operations. The main objectives of this work are…
We consider the problem of in-network compressed sensing from distributed measurements. Every agent has a set of measurements of a signal $x$, and the objective is for the agents to recover $x$ from their collective measurements using only…
We consider the problem of synchronizing data in distributed storage networks under an edit model that includes deletions and insertions. We present two modifications of MDS, regenerating and locally repairable codes that allow updates in…
It is now feasible to host Web Services on a mobile device due to the advances in cellular devices and mobile communication technologies. However, the reliability, usability and responsiveness of the Mobile Hosts depend on various factors…
The Linked Data principles provide a decentral approach for publishing structured data in the RDF format on the Web. In contrast to structured data published in relational databases where a key is often provided explicitly, finding a set of…
As an append-only distributed database, blockchain is utilized in a vast variety of applications including the cryptocurrency and Internet-of-Things (IoT). The existing blockchain solutions have downsides in communication and storage…
Current techniques and systems for distributed model training mostly assume that clusters are comprised of homogeneous servers with a constant resource availability. However, cluster heterogeneity is pervasive in computing infrastructure,…
While more organizations have been trying to move their infrastructure to the cloud in recent years, there have been significant challenges in how identities and access are managed in a hybrid cloud setting. This paper showcases a novel…
Web applications frequently leverage resources made available by remote web servers. As resources are created, updated, deleted, or moved, these applications face challenges to remain in lockstep with the server's change dynamics. Several…
In this paper, we give efficient algorithms and lower bounds for solving the heavy hitters problem while preserving differential privacy in the fully distributed local model. In this model, there are n parties, each of which possesses a…
Received wisdom portrays digital records as guaranteeing perpetuity; as the New York Times wrote a decade ago: "the web means the end of forgetting". The reality however is that digital records suffer similar risks of access loss as the…
The conventional device authentication of wireless networks usually relies on a security server and centralized process, leading to long latency and risk of single-point of failure. While these challenges might be mitigated by collaborative…
Recent cyber incidents and the push for zero trust security underscore the necessity of monitoring host-level events. However, current host-level intrusion detection systems (IDS) lack the ability to correlate alerts and coordinate a…
