In this paper we argue that the set of wireless, mobile devices (e.g., portable telephones, tablet PCs, GPS navigators, media players) commonly used by human users enables the construction of what we term a digital ecosystem, i.e., an…
Modern multi-domain networks now span over datacenter networks, enterprise networks, customer sites and mobile entities. Such networks are critical and, thus, must be resilient, scalable and easily extensible. The emergence of…
The integration of local device-to-device (D2D) communications and cellular connections has been intensively studied to satisfy co-existing D2D and cellular communication demand. In future cellular networks, there will be numerous standby…
The increasing popularity of applications such as video streaming in today's mobile devices introduces higher demand for throughput, and puts a strain especially on cellular links. Cooperation among mobile devices by exploiting both…
We present DISco, a storage and communication middleware designed to enable distributed and task-centric autonomic control of networks. DISco is designed to enable multi-agent identification of anomalous situations -- so-called "challenges"…
Traditional cellular service was designed for global connectivity, but business and logistical constraints led to its fragmentation, with deployments limited to individual countries and regions. Initiatives like Mobile Virtual Network…
This paper proposes a real-time distributed operational architecture to efficiently coordinate intergrated transmission and distribution systems (ITD). At the distribution system level, the distribution system operator (DSO) computes the…
Cellular networks are one of the corner stones of our information-driven society. However, existing cellular systems have been seriously challenged by the explosion of mobile data traffic, the emergence of machine-type communications and…
It is essential for the cellular network operators to provide cellular location services to meet the needs of their users and mobile applications. However, cellular locations, estimated by network-based methods at the server-side, bear with…
Device-to-Device communications represent a paradigm shift in cellular networks. In particular, analytical results on D2D performance for offloading and relay are very promising, but no experimental evidence validates these results to date.…
A new paradigm to support the communication among modules dynamically placed on a reconfigurable device at run-time is presented. Based on the network on chip (NoC) infrastructure, we developed a dynamic communication infrastructure as well…
Model-based Systems Engineering (MBSE) has been widely utilized to formalize system artifacts and facilitate their development throughout the entire lifecycle. During complex system development, MBSE models need to be frequently exchanged…
Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) delivers low-latency services by hosting applications near end-users. To promote sustainability, these systems are increasingly integrated with renewable Energy Harvesting (EH) technologies, enabling…
We describe a new public-domain open-source simulator of an electronic financial exchange, and of the traders that interact with the exchange, which is a truly distributed and cloud-native system that been designed to run on widely…
User-to-network relaying enabled via Device-to-Device communications (D2D) is a promising technique for improving the performance of cellular networks. Since in practice relays are in mobility, a dynamic relay selection scheme is…
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks form a serious threat to the security of Internet services. However, despite over a decade of research, and the existence of several proposals to address this problem, there has been little…
The 6GENABLERS-DLT project addresses critical challenges in fostering multi-party collaboration within dynamic 6G environments. As operators and service providers increasingly depend on third-party resources to meet their contractual and…
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is envisioned to be an integral component of 5G networks, and a technique for meeting the demand for high data rates. In a cellular network, D2D allows not only direct communication between users, but…
The current and envisaged increase of cellular traffic poses new challenges to Mobile Network Operators (MNO), who must densify their Radio Access Networks (RAN) while maintaining low Capital Expenditure and Operational Expenditure to…
As financial services (FS) companies have experienced drastic technology driven changes, the availability of new data streams provides the opportunity for more comprehensive customer understanding. We propose Dynamic Customer Embeddings…
