Every link disconnection or flap in a datacenter corrupts the network's self-knowledge -- its graph. We call this corruption a ghost: a node that appears reachable but is not, a link that reports "up" but silently drops traffic, or an IP…
Smart Grids are energy delivery networks, constituting an evolution of power grids, in which a bidirectional flow between power providers and consumers is established. These flows support the transfer of electricity and information, in…
The operation of power grids is becoming increasingly data-centric. While the abundance of data could improve the efficiency of the system, it poses major reliability challenges. In particular, state estimation aims to learn the behavior of…
