TCP is designed for networks with assumption that major losses occur only due to congestion of network traffic. On a wireless network TCP misinterprets the transmission losses due to bit errors and handoffs as losses caused by congestion,…
Message Passing Interface (MPI) is a foundational programming model for high-performance computing. MPI libraries traditionally employ network interconnects (e.g., Ethernet and InfiniBand) and network protocols (e.g., TCP and RoCE) with…
TriCloudEdge is a scalable three-tier cloud continuum that integrates far-edge devices, intermediate edge nodes, and central cloud services, working in parallel as a unified solution. At the far edge, ultra-low-cost microcontrollers can…
IEEE 802.11 is a widely used wireless LAN standard for medium access control. TCP is a prominent transport protocol originally designed for wired networks. TCP treats packet loss as congestion and reduces the data rate. In wireless networks…
In this paper, we revisit the performance of the QUIC connection setup and relate the design choices for fast and secure connections to common Web deployments. We analyze over 1M Web domains with 272k QUIC-enabled services and find two…
Due to increasing core counts in modern processors, several task-based runtimes emerged, including the C++ Standard Library for Concurrency and Parallelism (HPX). Although the asynchronous many-task runtime HPX allows implicit communication…
On-the-fly transcoding of dynamic point cloud sequences reduces storage requirements and virtually increases the number of available representations for on demand streaming scenarios. On-the-fly transcoding introduces, however, additional…
