The Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM) networks are quickly being adopted as backbones over various parts of the Internet. This paper analyzes the performance of TCP/IP protocols over ATM network's Available Bit Rate (ABR) and Unspecified Bit…

Applications such as virtual reality and online gaming require low delays for acceptable user experience. A key task for over-the-top (OTT) service providers who provide these applications is sending traffic through the networks to minimize…

Recently, there has been growing research on developing interference-aware routing (IAR) protocols for supporting multiple concurrent transmission in next-generation wireless communication systems. The existing IAR protocols do not consider…

In a hostile network environment, users must communicate without being detected. This involves blending in with the existing traffic. In some cases, a higher degree of secrecy is required. We present a proof-of-concept format transforming…

Among the mechanisms for the data security in computer networks is considered trusted routing. Its simulation method is chosen and choice of network simulator is substantiated.

We show how to establish TLS connections using one less round trip. In our approach, which we call TurboTLS, the initial client-to-server and server-to-client flows of the TLS handshake are sent over UDP rather than TCP. At the same time,…

We derive a rigorous upper bound on the classical computation time of finite-ranged tensor network contractions in $d \geq 2$ dimensions. Consequently, we show that quantum circuits of single-qubit and finite-ranged two-qubit gates can be…

In our current society, the inter-connectivity of devices provides easy access for netizens to utilize cyberspace technology for illegal activities. The deep web platform is a consummative ecosystem shielded by boundaries of trust,…

A trusted electronic election system requires that all the involved information must go public, that is, it focuses not only on transparency but also privacy issues. In other words, each ballot should be counted anonymously, correctly, and…

We propose a minority route choice game to investigate the effect of the network structure on traffic network performance under the assumption of drivers' bounded rationality. We investigate ring-and-hub topologies to capture the nature of…

We develop a means to detect ongoing per-country anomalies in the daily usage metrics of the Tor anonymous communication network, and demonstrate the applicability of this technique to identifying likely periods of internet censorship and…

Jerk-constrained trajectories offer a wide range of advantages that collectively improve the performance of robotic systems, including increased energy efficiency, durability, and safety. In this paper, we present a novel approach to…

We describe the results of a randomized controlled trial of video-streaming algorithms for bitrate selection and network prediction. Over the last eight months, we have streamed 14.2 years of video to 56,000 users across the Internet.…

There are various TCP variants such as Reno, Tahoe, Vegas, SACK and so on. These variants implement algorithms that handle congestion control. In our experiments we have used these variants to measure their performance such as throughput,…

Faster pathfinding in time-dependent transport networks is an important and challenging problem in navigation systems. There are two main types of transport networks: road networks for car driving and public transport route network. The…

The deterministic (timing) behavior of real-time systems (RTS) can be used by adversaries - say, to launch side channel attacks or even destabilize the system by denying access to critical resources. We propose a protocol (named REORDER) to…

Run Time Assurance (RTA) systems are online safety verification techniques that filter the output of a primary controller to assure safety. RTA approaches are used in safety-critical control to intervene when a performance-driven primary…

With a view to managing the increasing traffic in computer networks, round robin arbiter has been proposed to work with packet switching system to have increased speed in providing access and scheduling. Round robin arbiter is a doorway to…

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…

Peer-to-peer protocols play an increasingly instrumental role in Internet content distribution. It is therefore important to gain a complete understanding of how these protocols behave in practice and how their operating parameters affect…
