There is a growing need for authentication methodology in virtual reality applications. Current systems assume that the immersive experience technology is a collection of peripheral devices connected to a personal computer or mobile device.…
Recent mobile equipment (as well as the norm IEEE 802.21) now offers the possibility for users to switch from one technology to another (vertical handover). This allows flexibility in resource assignments and, consequently, increases the…
With the advent of Network Function Virtualization (NFV), Physical Network Functions (PNFs) are gradually being replaced by Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) that are hosted on general purpose servers. Depending on the call flows for…
This paper introduces Out of Hypervisor (OoH), a new research axis close to nested virtualization. Instead of emulating a full virtual hardware inside a VM to support a hypervisor, the OoH principle is to individually expose current…
In this article, we propose a space spreading-assisted framework that leverages either time or frequency diversity or both to reduce interference and signal loss owing to channel impairments and facilitate the efficient operation of…
The emergence of Software-Defined Vehicles (SDVs) signifies a shift from a distributed network of electronic control units (ECUs) to a centralized computing architecture within the vehicle's electrical and electronic systems. This…
Traditionally, Volt/VAR optimization (VVO) is performed in distribution networks through legacy devices such as on-load tap changers (OLTCs), voltage regulators (VRs), and capacitor banks. With the amendment in IEEE 1547 standard,…
The popularity and wide spread of IoT technology has brought about a rich hardware infrastructure over which it is possible to run powerful applications that were not previously imagined. Among this infrastructure, there are the medical…
VirtuWind proposes the application of Software Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) in critical infrastructure networks. We aim at introducing network programmability, reconfigurability and multi-tenant…
To a large extent, the deployment of edge computing (EC) can reduce the burden of the explosive growth of the Internet of things. As a powerful hub between the Internet of things and cloud servers, edge devices make the transmission of…
We propose IR2Vec, a Concise and Scalable encoding infrastructure to represent programs as a distributed embedding in continuous space. This distributed embedding is obtained by combining representation learning methods with flow…
Virtualization is a key technology used in a wide range of applications, from cloud computing to embedded systems. Over the last few years, mainstream computer architectures were extended with hardware virtualization support, giving rise to…
A novel conceptual framework is presented in this paper with an aim to standardize and virtualize Internet of Things(IoT) infrastructure through deploying OpenFlow technology. The framework can receivee services based on context information…
Neuromorphic hardware platforms can significantly lower the energy overhead of a machine learning inference task. We present a design-technology tradeoff analysis to implement such inference tasks on the processing elements (PEs) of a Non-…
Nowadays, more and more video transmissions primarily aim at downstream machine vision tasks rather than humans. While widely deployed Human Visual System (HVS) oriented video coding standards like H.265/HEVC and H.264/AVC are efficient,…
Many reasons make NFV an attractive paradigm for IT security: lowers costs, agile operations and better isolation as well as fast security updates, improved incident responses and better level of automation. On the other side, the network…
Secure containers isolate each container with its own kernel, mitigating shared-kernel attacks prevalent in traditional container systems. However, existing designs still face a fundamental isolation--performance trade-off. Nested-cloud…
This manuscript presents teaching and curriculum design for Information Technology classes. Today, students demand hands-on activities for the newest technologies. It is feasible to satisfy this appetite for exciting education by employing…
We introduce a user mode file system, CannyFS, that hides latency by assuming all I/O operations will succeed. The user mode process will in turn report errors, allowing proper cleanup and a repeated attempt to take place. We demonstrate…
Many reasons make NFV an attractive paradigm for IT security: lowers costs, agile operations and better isolation as well as fast security updates, improved incident responses and better level of automation. At the same time, the network…
