In this paper, we study the two-way relay channel with energy harvesting nodes. In particular, we find transmission policies that maximize the sum-throughput for two-way relay channels when the relay does not employ a data buffer. The relay…
We study probabilistic protocols for concurrent threshold-based load balancing in networks. There are n resources or machines represented by nodes in an undirected graph and m >> n users that try to find an acceptable resource by moving…
In the half-duplex single relay selection network, comprised of a source, $M$ half-duplex relays, and a destination, only one relay is active at any given time, i.e., only one relay receives or transmits, and the other relays are inactive,…
Tor and hidden services have emerged as a practical solution to protect user privacy against tracking and censorship. At the same time, little is known about the lifetime and nature of hidden services. Data collection and study of Tor…
Low-latency anonymity networks such as Tor remain vulnerable to infrastructure-level traffic analysis that exploits side-channel information observable from encrypted communications. We introduce NATA, a non-invasive active…
The goal of congestion control is to avoid congestion in network elements. A network element is congested if it is being offered more traffic than it can process. To detect such situations and to neutralize them we should monitor traffic in…
FourNetFlows, the abbreviation of Fourier Neural Network for Airfoil Flows, is an efficient model that provides quick and accurate predictions of steady airfoil flows. We choose the Fourier Neural Operator (FNO) as the backbone architecture…

This paper proposes a novel framework to predict traffic flows' bandwidth ahead of time. Modern network management systems share a common issue: the network situation evolves between the moment the decision is made and the moment when…
The proliferation of large-scale distributed systems, such as satellite constellations and high-performance computing clusters, demands robust communication primitives that maintain coordination under unreliable links. The torus topology,…
We break the linear link between the layer size and its inference cost by introducing the fast feedforward (FFF) architecture, a log-time alternative to feedforward networks. We demonstrate that FFFs are up to 220x faster than feedforward…
This paper focuses on helping network providers to carry out network capacity planning and sales projection by answering the question: For a given topology and capacity, whether the network can serve current flow demands with high…
Low delay is an explicit requirement for applications such as cloud gaming and video conferencing. Delay-based congestion control can achieve the same throughput but significantly smaller delay than loss-based one and is thus ideal for…
With a goal of supporting the timely and cost-effective analysis of Terabyte datasets on commodity components, we present and evaluate StoreTorrent, a simple distributed filesystem with integrated fault tolerance for efficient handling of…
Closed-loop flow control protocols, such as the prominent implementation TCP, are prevalent in the Internet, today. TCP has continuously been improved for greedy traffic sources to achieve high throughput over networks with large bandwidth…
We consider a relay-assisted wireless network, where the energy-harvesting buffer-aided relay node is powered by radio-frequency signals from a source node wishing to communicate with its destination. We propose two secure cooperative…
