Several organizations have built multiple datacenters connected via dedicated wide area networks over which large inter-datacenter transfers take place. This includes tremendous volumes of bulk multicast traffic generated as a result of…

Using multiple datacenters allows for higher availability, load balancing and reduced latency to customers of cloud services. To distribute multiple copies of data, cloud providers depend on inter-datacenter WANs that ought to be used…

Bulk transfers from one to multiple datacenters can have many different completion time objectives ranging from quickly replicating some $k$ copies to minimizing the time by which the last destination receives a full replica. We design an…

Multicast allows sending a message to multiple recipients without having to create and send a separate message for each recipient. This preserves network bandwidth, which is particularly important in time-sensitive networks. These networks…

As applications become more distributed to improve user experience and offer higher availability, businesses rely on geographically dispersed datacenters that host such applications more than ever. Dedicated inter-datacenter networks have…

Large cloud companies manage dozens of datacenters across the globe connected using dedicated inter-datacenter networks. An important application of these networks is data replication which is done for purposes such as increased resiliency…

Data intensive applications on clusters often require requests quickly be sent to the node managing the desired data. In many applications, one must look through a sorted tree structure to determine the responsible node for accessing or…

The most efficient receiver-driven multicast congestion control protocols use dynamic channels. This means that each group has a cyclic rate variation with a continuously decreasing phase. Despite promising results in terms of fairness,…

Achieving high bandwidth utilization in cloud computing is essential for better network performance. However, it is difficult to attain high bandwidth utilization in cloud computing due to the complex and distributed natures of cloud…

Smart grids have received much attention in recent years in order to optimally manage the resources, transmission and consumption of electric power.In these grids, one of the most important communication services is the multicast service.…

Several approaches to mitigating the Forwarding Information Base (FIB) overflow problem were developed and software solutions using FIB aggregation are of particular interest. One of the greatest concerns to deploy these algorithms to real…

Datacenters provide the infrastructure for cloud computing services used by millions of users everyday. Many such services are distributed over multiple datacenters at geographically distant locations possibly in different continents. These…

Random Forest remains one of Data Mining's most enduring ensemble algorithms, achieving well-documented levels of accuracy and processing speed, as well as regularly appearing in new research. However, with data mining now reaching the…

The recent proliferation of Data Grids and the increasingly common practice of using resources as distributed data stores provide a convenient environment for communities of researchers to share, replicate, and manage access to copies of…

Atomic multicast is a communication primitive used in dependable systems to ensure consistent ordering of messages delivered to a set of replica groups. This primitive enables critical services to integrate replication and sharding (i.e.,…

We present Elmo, a system that addresses the multicast scalability problem in multi-tenant data centers. Modern cloud applications frequently exhibit one-to-many communication patterns and, at the same time, require sub-millisecond…

Multicast is an efficient way to realize one-to-many group communications in large-scale networks such as the Internet. However, the deployment of IP multicast services over the Internet has not been as rapid as expected and needed.…

A new frequency switching receiver structure is proposed for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer in multi-carrier communication systems. Each subcarrier is switched to either the energy harvesting unit or the information…

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 main challenges in building a large scale publish-subscribe infrastructure in an enterprise network, is to provide the subscribers with the required information, while minimizing the consumed host and network resources.…
