The traditional model of single ownership of all the physical network elements and network layers by mobile network operators is beginning to be challenged. This has been attributed to the rapid and complex technology migration compounded…
The landscape of cloud computing has significantly changed over the last decade. Not only have more providers and service offerings crowded the space, but also cloud infrastructure that was traditionally limited to single provider data…
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…
Digital connectivity has become the foundation of prosperity and an essential need for functioning societies. Despite this dependence, limitation on Internet access remains a prevalent issue, largely hinged on socioeconomic and geographic…
Besides advanced telecommunications techniques, the most prominent evolution of wireless networks is the densification of network deployment. In particular, the increasing access points/users density and reduced cell size significantly…
One of the most significant 5G technology enablers will be Device-to-Device (D2D) communications. D2D communications constitute a promising way to improve spectral, energy and latency performance, exploiting the physical proximity of…
By allowing a large number of links to be simultaneously transmitted, directional antenna arrays with beamforming have been envisioned as a promising candidate to reach unprecedented levels of spatial isolation. To achieve the high…
We present an incentive model for route distribution in the context of path vector routing protocols and we focus on the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). BGP is the de-facto protocol for interdomain routing on the Internet. We model BGP route…
Relaying is a promising enhancement to current radio access networks. Relay enhanced LTE-Advanced networks are expected to fulfill the demanding coverage and capacity requirements in a cost-efficient way. However, due to low transmit power,…
The rapid growth of data-intensive applications such as generative AI, scientific simulations, and large-scale analytics is driving modern supercomputers and data centers toward increasingly heterogeneous and tightly integrated…
The advent of online social networks has facilitated fast and wide spread of information. However, some users, especially members of minority groups, may be less likely to receive information spreading on the network, due to their…
Cloud providers install mitigations to reduce the impact of network failures within their datacenters. Existing network mitigation systems rely on simple local criteria or global proxy metrics to determine the best action. In this paper, we…
The evolving explosion in high data rate services and applications will soon require the use of untapped, abundant unregulated spectrum of the visible light for communications to adequately meet the demands of the fifth-generation (5G)…
As Communication Service Providers (CSPs) adopt the Network Function Virtualization (NFV) paradigm, they need to transition their network function capacity to a virtualized infrastructure with different Network Functions running on a set of…
Because most technology and computer architecture innovations were (intentionally) invisible to higher layers, application and other software developers could reap the benefits of this progress without engaging in it. Higher performance has…
In order to compete with others, high education need complete their infrastructure with Information technology support. High level management as a decision maker need something that can boost the system to compete with other high education,…
In this paper, we propose a new paradigm in designing and realizing energy efficient wireless indoor access networks, namely, a hybrid system enabled by traditional RF access, such as WiFi, as well as the emerging visible light…
We consider a spectrum-sharing network where n secondary relays are used to increase secondary rate and also mitigate interference on the primary by reducing the required overall secondary emitted power. We propose a distributed relay…
Limited spectrum resources and dramatic growth of high data rate applications have motivated opportunistic spectrum access utilizing the promising concept of cognitive networks. Although this concept has emerged primarily to enhance…
Following decades of sustained improvement, metaheuristics are one of the great success stories of optimization research. However, in order for research in metaheuristics to avoid fragmentation and a lack of reproducibility, there is a…
