Existing network stacks tackle performance and scalability aspects by relying on multiple receive queues. However, at software level, each queue is processed by a single thread, which prevents simultaneous work on the same queue and limits…
In cloud radio access networks (C-RANs), a substantial amount of data must be exchanged in both backhaul and fronthaul links, which causes high power consumption and poor quality of service (QoS) experience for real-time services. To solve…
Active queue management (AQM) drops packets early in the growth of a queue, to prevent a capacity-seeking sender (e.g. TCP) from keeping the buffer full. An AQM can mark instead of dropping packets if they indicate support for explicit…

Hardware based memory pooling enabled by interconnect standards like CXL have been gaining popularity amongst cloud providers and system integrators. While pooling memory resources has cost benefits, it comes at a penalty of increased…
Due to the presence of buffers in the inner network nodes, each congestion event leads to buffer queueing and thus to an increasing end-to-end delay. In the case of delay sensitive applications, a large delay might not be acceptable and a…
