To effectively express and satisfy network application requirements, intent-based network management has emerged as a promising solution. In intent-based methods, users and applications express their intent in a high-level abstract language…
We propose a light-weight client-server model of communication between existing implementations of different program analyses. The communication is on-line and anonymous which means that all analyses simultaneously analyse the same program…
Parallel applications are often unable to take full advantage of emerging parallel architectures due to scaling limitations, which arise due to inter-process communication. Performance models are used to analyze the sources of communication…
Outsourcing -- successful, and sometimes painful -- has become one of the hottest topics in IT service management discussions over the past decade. IT services are outsourced to external service provider in order to reduce the effort…
Data outsourcing is a cost-effective solution for data owners to tackle issues such as large volumes of data, huge number of users, and intensive computation needed for data analysis. They can simply upload their databases to a cloud and…
Since its inception, underwater digital acoustic communication has required custom hardware that neither has the economies of scale nor is pervasive. We present the first acoustic system that brings underwater messaging capabilities to…
Predictive coding, the term used in the legal industry for document classification using machine learning, presents additional challenges when the dataset comprises instant messages, due to their informal nature and smaller sizes. In this…
Efficient satellite communications play an enormously important role in all of our daily lives. This includes the transmission of data for communication purposes, the operation of IoT applications or the provision of data for ground…
The Offshore Wind (OSW) industry is experiencing significant expansion, resulting in increased Operations \& Maintenance (O\&M) costs. Intelligent alarm systems offer the prospect of swift detection of component failures and process…
This paper studies the organization of communication between biased senders and a receiver. Senders can misreport their private information at a cost. Efficiency is achieved by clearing information asymmetries without incurring costs.…
Use of Peer-to-Peer (P2P) service networks introduces a new communication paradigm because peers are both clients and servers and so each peer may provide/request services to/from other peers. Empirical studies of P2P networks have been…
Autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) are being tasked with increasingly complex missions. The acoustic communications required for AUVs are, by the nature of the medium, low bandwidth while adverse environmental conditions underwater often…
For agents at a contact centre receiving calls, the most important piece of information is the reason for a given call. An agent cannot provide support on a call if they do not know why a customer is calling. In this paper we describe our…
In this paper we explore the problem of achieving efficient packet transmission over unreliable links with worst case occurrence of errors. In such a setup, even an omniscient offline scheduling strategy cannot achieve stability of the…
The rapidly growing market demand for automatic dialogue agents capable of goal-oriented behavior has caused many tech-industry leaders to invest considerable efforts into task-oriented dialog systems. The success of these systems is highly…
With the growth of intermodal freight transportation, it is important that transportation planners and decision makers are knowledgeable about freight flow data to make informed decisions. This is particularly true with Intelligent…
This paper explores the Opportunistic Routing Protocols in the context of remote sea emergency scenarios, using the MH370 plane crash as a case study (OppNetMH370). We studied the likelihood of successful transmissions of emergency messages…
Push message delivery, where a client maintains an ``always-on'' connection with a server in order to be notified of a (asynchronous) message arrival in real-time, is increasingly being used in Internet services. The key message in this…
We present a case study of an iterative design process that includes a conversation analyst. We discuss potential benefits of conversation analysis for design, and we describe our strategies for integrating the conversation analyst in the…
Task-oriented communication presents a promising approach to improve the communication efficiency of edge inference systems by optimizing learning-based modules to extract and transmit relevant task information. However, real-time…
