Evaluating cellular systems, from 5G New Radio (NR) and 5G-Advanced to 6G, is challenging because the performance emerges from the tight coupling of propagation, beam management, scheduling, and higher-layer interactions. System-level…
This paper explores the changes required of TCP to efficiently support cluster file systems such as Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) where the storage nodes are connected through a software defined networking (SDN). Traditional chain…
This paper summarizes the challenges identified at the MAMI Management and Measurement Summit (M3S) for network management with the increased deployment of encrypted traffic based on a set of use cases and deployed techniques (for network…
Millimeter wave frequencies will likely be part of the fifth generation of mobile networks and of the 3GPP New Radio (NR) standard. MmWave communication indeed provides a very large bandwidth, thus an increased cell throughput, but how to…
This paper presents a software-based technique to recover control-flow errors in multithreaded programs. Control-flow error recovery is achieved through inserting additional instructions into multithreaded program at compile time regarding…
This paper introduces a novel physical-layer method labelled as Multi-Modal Concurrent Transmission (MMCT) for efficient transmission of multiple data streams with different reliability-latency performance requirements. The MMCT arranges…
While the 5th generation (5G) of mobile networks has landed in the commercial area, the research community is exploring new functionalities for 6th generation (6G) networks, for example non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) via space/air nodes…
The network utility maximization problem (NUM) for multi-path is a problem which is non-strictly convex and non-separable. Using Jensen's inequality, we approximate the NUM to a strictly convex and separable problem which can be solved…
Multipath-TCP receives a lot of attention recently and can potentially improve quality of service for both private and commercial users. It leverages the multiple available paths and send packets through all the available paths. The growing…
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) has emerged as a facilitator for harnessing and pooling available bandwidth in wireless/wireline communication networks and in data centers. Existing implementations of MPTCP such as, Linked Increase Algorithm (LIA),…
We demonstrate that asymmetric 3-port devices can be used to design a multi-functional set-up operating as a symmetric combiner and splitter at the same frequency. For a concrete implementation of the proposed multi-functionality protocol,…
High throughput is of particular interest in data center and HPC networks. Although myriad network topologies have been proposed, a broad head-to-head comparison across topologies and across traffic patterns is absent, and the right way to…
This paper proposes an application-aware multipath packet forwarding framework that integrates Machine Learning Techniques (MLT) and Software Defined Networks (SDN). As the Internet provides a variety of services and their performance…
The Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP)-based real-time communications (RTC) applications, exemplified by video conferencing, have experienced an unparalleled surge in popularity and development in recent years. In pursuit of optimizing…
We consider multi-input multi-output (MIMO) communications over multi-mode fibers (MMFs). Current MMF standards, such as OM3 and OM4, use fibers with core radii of 50 \mu m, allowing hundreds of modes to propagate. Unfortunately, due to…
In previous work (`Network coding meets TCP') we proposed a new protocol that interfaces network coding with TCP by means of a coding layer between TCP and IP. Unlike the usual batch-based coding schemes, the protocol uses a TCP-compatible…
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is increasingly adopted for tool-integrated LLM agents, but its multi-layer design and third-party server ecosystem expand risks across tool metadata, untrusted outputs, cross-tool flows, multimodal inputs, and…
With a standardization process that attracted many interest, QUIC can been seen as the next general-purpose transport protocol. Still, it does not provide true multipath support yet, missing some use cases that MPTCP can address. To fill…
Routing is a challenge to Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) for supporting multimedia applications due to nodes' energy constraints and computational capabilities, and the ways sensor nodes obtain forwarding information. In this…
The approach to decomposition of multidimensional network systems on monoflow multilayer network systems (MLNS) is proposed, which significantly simplifies the analysis of intersystem interactions in multipurpose and multifunctional…
