Popularly used to distribute a variety of multimedia content items in today Internet, HTTP-based web content delivery still suffers from various content delivery failures. Hindered by the expensive deployment cost, the conventional CDN can…
Traffic for internet video streaming has been rapidly increasing and is further expected to increase with the higher definition videos and IoT applications, such as 360 degree videos and augmented virtual reality applications. While…
To meet the timing requirements of interactive applications, the no-frills congestion-agnostic transport protocols like UDP are increasingly deployed side-by-side in the same network with congestion-responsive TCP. In cloud platforms, even…
We propose and study a model of traffic in communication networks. The underlying network has a structure that is tunable between a scale-free growing network with preferential attachments and a random growing network. To model realistic…
Recently, Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) based communications systems have attracted increasing research and commercial interest due to their cost effective deployment and ease of mobility.During natural disasters and emergencies, such…
Only little is publicly known about traffic in non-educational data centers. Recent studies made some knowledge available, which gives us the opportunity to create more realistic traffic models for data center research. We used this…
In this paper, dynamic deployment of Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) architecture is proposed utilizing only IoT-level devices. By partitioning and pipelining the CNN, it horizontally distributes the computation load among…
Traditional Traffic Engineering (TE) solutions can achieve the optimal or near-optimal performance by rerouting as many flows as possible. However, they do not usually consider the negative impact, such as packet out of order, when…
Modern networked systems are increasingly reconfigurable, enabling demand-aware infrastructures whose resources can be adjusted according to the workload they currently serve. Such dynamic adjustments can be exploited to improve network…
Traditional Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) built with traditional Internet technology are less and less able to cope with today's tremendous growth of content. Information Centric Networks (ICN), a proposed future Internet technology, may…
Recent years have seen an evolution of SDN control plane architectures, starting from simple monolithic controllers, over modular monolithic controllers, to distributed controllers. We observe, however, that today's distributed controllers…
With the rise in data centre virtualization, there are increasing choices as to where to place workloads, be it in web applications, Enterprise IT or in Network Function Virtualisation. Workload placement approaches available today…
Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) deliver content (e.g. Web pages, videos) to geographically distributed end-users over the Internet. Some contents do sometimes attract the attention of a large group of end-users. This often leads to flash…
State-of-the-art Internet traffic engineering uses source-based explicit routing via MPLS or Segment Routing. Though widely adopted in practice, source routing can face certain inefficiencies and operational issues, caused by its use of…
The increasing scale of modern neural networks, exemplified by architectures from IBM (530 billion neurons) and Google (500 billion parameters), presents significant challenges in terms of computational cost and infrastructure requirements.…
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…
Numerous systems for dissemination, retrieval, and archiving of documents have been developed in the past. Those systems often focus on one of these aspects and are hard to extend and combine. Typically, the transmission protocols, query…
In the mobile-edge-cloud continuum, a plethora of heterogeneous data sources and computation-capable nodes are available. Such nodes can cooperate to perform a distributed learning task, aided by a learning controller (often located at the…
Today's Internet is heavily used for multimedia streaming from cloud backends, while the Internet of Things (IoT) reverses the traditional data flow, with high data volumes produced at the network edge. Information Centric Networking (ICN)…
