Internet evolves and operates largely without a central coordination, the lack of which was and is critically important to the rapid growth and evolution of Internet. However, the lack of management in turn makes it very difficult to…
Content replication to many destinations is a common use case in the Internet of Things (IoT). The deployment of IP multicast has proven inefficient, though, due to its lack of layer-2 support by common IoT radio technologies and its…
Minimizing total link cost in Information-Centric Network (ICN) by optimizing content placement is challenging in both effectiveness and practicality. To attain better performance, upstream link cost caused by a cache miss should be…
Blockchain is a merging technology for decentralized management and data security, which was first introduced as the core technology of cryptocurrency, e.g., Bitcoin. Since the first success in financial sector, blockchain has shown great…
In a large-scale distributed machine learning system, coded computing has attracted wide-spread attention since it can effectively alleviate the impact of stragglers. However, several emerging problems greatly limit the performance of coded…
Consider a scenario of broadcasting a common content to a group of cooperating mobile devices that are within proximity of each other. Devices in this group may receive partial content from the source due to packet losses over wireless…
Device-to-device (D2D) communication is a promising approach to optimize the utilization of air interface resources in 5G networks, since it allows decentralized opportunistic short-range communication. For D2D to be useful, mobile nodes…
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) has emerged as a paradigm to cope with the lack of built-in security primitives and efficient mechanisms for content distribution of today's Internet. However, deploying ICN in a wireless environment…
As digital content distribution expands rapidly through online platforms, securing digital media and protecting intellectual property has become increasingly complex. Traditional centralized systems, while widely adopted, suffer from…
This paper considers the secretive coded caching problem with shared caches in which no user must have access to the files that it did not demand. In a shared cache network, the users are served by a smaller number of helper caches and each…
Content-centric networking (CCN) introduces a paradigm shift from a host centric to an information centric communication model for future Internet architectures. It supports the retrieval of a particular content regardless of the physical…
Replicating or caching popular content in memories distributed across the network is a technique to reduce peak network loads. Conventionally, the main performance gain of this caching was thought to result from making part of the requested…
We present sec-cs, a hash-table-like data structure for file contents on untrusted storage that is both secure and storage-efficient. We achieve authenticity and confidentiality with zero storage overhead using deterministic authenticated…
Content distribution networks (CDNs) which serve to deliver web objects (e.g., documents, applications, music and video, etc.) have seen tremendous growth since its emergence. To minimize the retrieving delay experienced by a user with a…
Content-Centric Networking (CCN) is a concept being considered as a potential future alternative to, or replacement for, today's Internet IP-style packet-switched host-centric networking. One factor making CCN attractive is its focus on…
We develop an analytical framework for distribution of popular content in an Information Centric Network (ICN) that comprises of Access ICNs, a Transit ICN and a Content Provider. Using a generalized Zipf distribution to model content…
Information Centric Networks (ICNs) have emerged in recent years as a new networking paradigm for the next-generation Internet. The primary goal of these networks is to provide effective mechanisms for content distribution and retrieval…
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is being realized as a promising approach to accomplish the shortcomings of current IP-address based networking. ICN models are based on naming the content to get rid of address-space scarcity, accessing…
Decentralized coded caching is studied for a content server with $N$ files, each of size $F$ bits, serving $K$ active users, each equipped with a cache of distinct capacity. It is assumed that the users' caches are filled in advance during…
Under the emerging network coding paradigm, intermediate nodes in the network are allowed not only to store and forward packets but also to process and mix different data flows. We propose a low-complexity cryptographic scheme that exploits…
