HTTP adaptive streaming (HAS) has become the universal technology for video streaming over the Internet. Many HAS system designs aim at sharing the network bandwidth in a rate-fair manner. However, rate fairness is in general not equivalent…
The surge in popularity of short-form video content, particularly through platforms like TikTok and Instagram, has led to an exponential increase in data traffic, presenting significant challenges in network resource management. Traditional…
One of the most important multimedia applications is Internet protocol TV (IPTV) for next-generation networks. IPTV provides triple-play services that require high-speed access networks with the functions of multicasting and quality of…
Thanks to the great progress in mobile and wireless technologies, Internet-distributed applications like P2P file sharing are nowadays deployed over MANET (i.e., P2P mobile systems). These applications allow users to search and share…
Quantum cloud computing is a promising paradigm for efficiently provisioning quantum resources (i.e., qubits) to users. In quantum cloud computing, quantum cloud providers provision quantum resources in reservation and on-demand plans for…
Cloud-based computing systems can get oversubscribed due to the budget constraints of their users or limitations in certain resource types. The oversubscription can, in turn, degrade the users perceived Quality of Service (QoS). The…
The volume of personal information and data most Internet users find themselves amassing is ever increasing and the fast pace of the modern world results in most requiring instant access to their files. Millions of these users turn to cloud…
Device-independent (DI) quantum secret sharing (QSS) can relax the security assumptions about the devices' internal workings and provide QSS the highest level of security in theory. The original DI QSS protocol proved its correctness and…
In this paper, we investigate the Domain Name System (DNS) over QUIC (DoQ) and propose a non-disruptive extension, which can greatly reduce DoQ's resource consumption. This extension can benefit all DNS clients - especially Internet of…
Nowadays video streaming is growing over the social clouds, where end-users always want to share High Definition (HD) videos among friends. Mostly videos were recorded via smartphones and other HD devices and short time videos have a big…
IPSec is a protocol that allows to make secure connections between branch offices and allows secure VPN accesses. However, the efforts to improve IPSec are still under way; one aspect of this improvement is to take Quality of Service (QoS)…
Peer-to-Peer Live streaming and Video on Demand is the most popular media applications over the Internet in recent years. These systems reduce the load on the server and provide a scalable content distribution. A new paradigm of P2P network…
The hierarchical token bucket (HTB) algorithm allows to specify per-flow bitrate guarantees and enables excess bandwidth sharing between flows of the same class. Additionally, it provides capabilities to prioritize the traffic of specific…
Quantum key distribution (QKD) networks provide information-theoretically secure keys for distant parties, emerging as a vital alternative to classical cryptography infrastructures threatened by quantum computing. In QKD networks, the…
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) file-sharing is becoming increasingly popular in recent years. In 2012, it was reported that P2P traffic consumed over 5,374 petabytes per month, which accounted for approximately 20.5% of consumer internet traffic. TV is…
The quantum Internet relies on the ability to distribute entangled quantum bits (ebits) between quantum memories at the end nodes, to perform applications like blind or distributed quantum computing that are impossible if end nodes are…
Recent years mesh-based Peer-to-Peer live streaming has become a promising way for service providers to offer high-quality live video streaming service to Internet users. In this paper, we make a detailed study on modeling and performance…
Advances in web technologies have driven massive content uploads and requests that can be identified by the increased usage of multimedia web and social web services. This situation enforces the content providers to scale their…
The predominant use of wireless access networks is for media streaming applications, which are only gaining popularity as ever more devices become available for this purpose. However, current access networks treat all packets identically,…
The development of communication protocols for teleoperation with force feedback (generally known as telehaptics) has gained widespread interest over the past decade. Several protocols have been proposed for performing telehaptic…
