In this paper, we propose an approach for the automated translation of application-level requirements regarding the logical workflow and its QoS into a configuration of the underlying network substrate. Our goal is to facilitate the…
This article investigates the basic design principles for a new Wireless Network Operating System (WNOS), a radically different approach to software-defined networking (SDN) for infrastructure-less wireless networks. Departing from…
The large scale content distribution systems were improved broadly using the replication techniques. The demanded contents can be brought closer to the clients by multiplying the source of information geographically, which in turn reduce…
We propose an architecture for scheduling network operations enabling the end-to-end generation of entanglement according to user demand. The main challenge solved by this architecture is to allow for the integration of a network schedule…
The aim of a quantum network is to enable the generation of end-to-end entangled links between end nodes of the network, so that they can execute quantum network applications. To facilitate this, it is desirable to have robust control of…
Building a network architecture must answer to organization needs, but also to two major elements which are the need for dependability and performance. By performance, we must understand the ability to meet an immediate need and the ability…
Despite the prevalence of wireless connectivity in urban areas around the globe, there remain numerous and diverse situations where connectivity is insufficient or unavailable. To address this, we introduce mobile wireless infrastructure on…
To answer traffic engineering goals, current backbone networks use expensive and sophisticated equipments, that run distributed algorithms to imple- ment dynamic multi-path routing (e.g., MPLS tunnels and dynamic trunk rerout- ing). We…
Smart grid is an emerging technology which is able to control the power load via price signaling. The communication between the power supplier and power customers is a key issue in smart grid. Performance degradation like delay or outage…
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have been adopted as merely data producers for years. However, the data collected by WSNs can also be used to manage their operation and avoid unnecessary measurements that do not provide any new knowledge…
This paper presents a Secure Edge Gateway Architecture for Wi-Fi-Enabled IoT designed to strengthen local network protection without altering existing infrastructure. The proposed gateway acts as an intermediate control point between Wi-Fi…
Traffic and channel-data rate combined with the stream oriented methodology can provide a scheme for offering optimized and guaranteed QoS. In this work a stream oriented modeled scheme is proposed based on each node's self-scheduling…
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have emerged as adequate platforms to carry communications nodes, including Wi-Fi Access Points and cellular Base Stations. This has led to the concept of flying networks composed of UAVs as a flexible and…
For seamless QoS, it is important that all the stakeholders, such as the hosts, applications, access networks, routers, and other middleboxes, follow a single protocol and they trust each other. In this article, we investigate the…
In this paper, we propose a refinement-based adaptation approach for the architecture of distributed group communication support applications. Unlike most of previous works, our approach reaches implementable, context-aware and dynamically…
Quality of service (QoS) for a network is characterized in terms of various parameters specifying packet delay and loss tolerance requirements for the application. The unpredictable nature of the wireless channel demands for application of…
Networks-on-Chip (NoCs) for future many-core processor platforms integrate more and more heterogeneous components of different types and many real-time and latency-sensitive applications can run on a single chip concurrently. The…
Software-Defined Networking enables the centralized orchestration of data traffic within a network. However, proposed solutions require a high degree of architectural penetration. The present study targets the orchestration of network…
With the increasing demands for new data and real-time services, wireless networks should support calls with different traffic characteristics and different Quality of Service (QoS)guarantees. In addition, various wireless technologies and…
