As software may be used by multiple users, caching popular software at the wireless edge has been considered to save computation and communications resources for mobile edge computing (MEC). However, fetching uncached software from the core…
The communication networks in real world often couple with each other to save costs, which results in any network does not have a stand-alone function and efficiency. To investigate this, in this paper we propose a transportation model on…
Network-on-Chip (NoC) congestion builds up during heavy traffic load and cripples the system performance by stalling the cores. Moreover, congestion leads to wasted link bandwidth due to blocked buffers and bouncing packets. Existing…
We consider the problem of routing packets across a multi-hop network consisting of multiple sources of traffic and wireless links while ensuring bounded expected delay. Each packet transmission can be overheard by a random subset of…
In intelligent transportation systems (ITS), adaptive transit signal priority (TSP) and dynamic bus control systems have been independently developed to maintain efficient and reliable urban bus services. However, those two systems could…
This dissertation proposes two solutions for urban traffic control in the presence of connected and automated vehicles. First a centralized platoon-based controller is proposed for the cooperative intersection management problem that takes…
After more than a decade of development, real time communication (RTC) for video telephony has made significantly progress. However, emerging high-quality RTC applications with high definition and high frame rate requires sufficient…
Several novel industrial applications involve human control of vehicles, cranes, or mobile robots through various high-throughput feedback systems, such as Virtual Reality (VR) and tactile/haptic signals. The near real-time interaction…
To enable safe and efficient use of multi-robot systems in everyday life, a robust and fast method for coordinating their actions must be developed. In this paper, we present a distributed task allocation and scheduling algorithm for…
It is commonly seen that buses are blocked by the ones in front serving passengers and have to queue outside a curbside bus stop although there are vacant berths at the stop. The resultant bus delays degrade the service level of urban…
Datacenter congestion control protocols are challenged to navigate the throughput-buffering trade-off while relative packet buffer capacity is trending lower year-over-year. In this context, receiver-driven protocols -- which schedule…
We investigate the stochastic transfer synchronization problem, which seeks to synchronize the timetables of different routes in a transit network to reduce transfer waiting times, delay times, and unnecessary in-vehicle times. We present a…
In a mobile ad hoc network, temporary link failures and route changes occur frequently. With the assumption that all packet losses are due to congestion, TCP performs poorly in such an environment. There are many versions of TCP which…
Traffic congestion is an increasing problem in most cities around the world. It impacts businesses as well as commuters, small cities and large ones in developing as well as developed economies. One approach to decrease urban traffic…
Congestion is a problem of paramount importance in resource constrained Wireless Sensor Networks, especially for large networks, where the traffic loads exceed the available capacity of the resources. Sensor nodes are prone to failure and…
The latest trends in high-performance computing systems show an increasing demand on the use of a large scale multicore systems in a efficient way, so that high compute-intensive applications can be executed reasonably well. However, the…
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) can exploit multiple available interfaces at the end devices by establishing concurrent multiple connections between source and destination. MPTCP is a drop-in replacement for TCP and this makes it an attractive choice…
Backpressure scheduling and routing, in which packets are preferentially transmitted over links with high queue differentials, offers the promise of throughput-optimal operation for a wide range of communication networks. However, when the…
The topology transition problem of transmission networks is becoming increasingly crucial with topological flexibility more widely leveraged to promote high renewable penetration. This paper proposes a novel methodology to address this…
The wireless mobile ad hoc network (MANET) architecture is one consisting of a set of mobile hosts capable of communicating with each other without the assistance of base stations. This has made possible creating a mobile distributed…
